Miss Emma Lynton was stranded in France, in the middle of a revolution, totally alone! Handsome aristocrat Simon Avedon came to her rescue and vowed to escort her home. But Emma began to find Simon's orders rather irksome -- until she was told of his past.

How could a man who had never been shown love understand how to win her heart? Emma was brave in helping others, and now she would have to be brave for herself -- for the prize of Simon's love was worth any risk!
