Lady Rebecca Dunleavy, rebelling against an arranged marriage, runs away from the strict aunt and uncle who have cared for her since her father's death. Becca hopes to find a respectable position and support herself until she is able to take charge of the large inheritance that will come to her when she turns 25. Posing as plain Rebecca Dunn, she seeks out some distant relatives in London. They immediately take her in and give her the post of chaperone to the strong-willed Lady Emily. But it is Lady Emily's brother, Lucas, that has Becca at loose ends. At first, he was determined to find another woman to fill the post as Emily's chaperone, thinking Rebecca far too young for the job. Far worse was when he seemed to fall in love...and determined to find out everything about the lovely Becca. And Becca has fallen for him too. But, will Lucas forgive her when he finds out she has deceived them all?
