Valentine Ardsley escapes the constraints of young ladyhood by disguising herself as a boy to work on Lord Diccon Leyburn's Yorkshire estate.

Refusing such an insulting proposal, Valentine heads to London, determined to find a gentleman who will truly love her, even if it means pretending to forget the infuriatingly irresistible Lord Leyburn.
