Christine Harrison wants nothing more than to marry a man of good standing and wealth-and to achieve this goal, she has been collecting useful acquaintances for years. Her strategic social navigation seems to have paid off in the form of one Mr. Oliver Davenport. Their relationship has been building steadily, and surely a proposal cannot be far off. But when Christine and her friends travel to Cassfield Manor to secure their futures, a pair of brothers enter the scene and threaten to disrupt Christine's perfect plans. Their arrival brings to light more than Christine could have ever expected-haunting pasts, blackmail, unpaid debts, dangerous circumstances, and secrets that will one day affect them all. As plots are revealed, Christine must learn to see beyond wealth and status and instead look for love with her own heart. But can the man who loves her most realize how much he cares for her before it's too late?
