Disheartened but not defeated, Gavin MacBride temporarily abandon's plans for restoring the family coffers to escort his sister-in-law's long-lost relative to Yorkshire for a reunion. Gavin might have failed to secure funds to ensure his family's future prosperity, but surely, he can deliver a young woman to Danby Castle in one piece.
Heiress Victoria Eastland isn't making his job easy, though, especially when she sets off for Yorkshire alone. With no carriages for hire at the local coaching inn, Gavin is resigned to give chase on horseback in inclement weather, but a Good Samaritan takes pity on Gavin and invites him to share his coach. Soon, the newfound friends are led on a merry chase that ends with a bold rescue and an unexpected discovery. The outspoken, foolishly brave Miss Eastland has been under Gavin's nose the whole time-and a little too close when one is unprepared to lose his heart.
