The past year has been most unkind to Lady Fiona Hollingsworth.  First, the man she has been promised to for half her life (Edward, Earl Warwick, hero of Counterfeit Countess) broke her heart by marrying another.  Then her beloved father died, leaving his financial affairs in shambles.  And now her eldest brother has been abducted by Spanish outlaws who demand an exorbitant ransom to ensure his safe return.  Desperate to save her brother, Fiona remembers a chance meeting with the handsome Nicholas Birmingham, the richest stockbroker in all of England, a man shunned by her brother.  She casts her pride aside and goes to Nicholas, but all she has to offer as collateral is . . . herself.
