But luck must be on her side--just when it seems all is doomed, she runs straight into the arms of Martin Hargrove, Earl of Fenbrook, who mistakes her for his distant cousin, Daphne. Lord Fenbrook has no intention of marrying, and certainly doesn't consider his notoriously scatterbrained cousin a prospect. But her flighty persona seems to hide something far more intriguing--a secret self she trusts with no one. And Martin is determined to earn that trust... When Martin's sister discovers Joan's charade, they strike a bargain: Joan can remain within the safe walls of Birch Hall, as long as she doesn't allow Martin to fall in love with her--for their flirtation would surely ruin them both.
