Despite coming to London for her debut, Miss Constance Millington has been informed by her father that a match is to be made for her. Heavy-hearted, she asks her friends to use ‘The London Ledger’ to make certain the gentleman is not a rogue – but instead, she is encouraged to write an anonymous letter to any eligible gentleman open to a marriage of love. To her utter astonishment, five replies come back to her, with the sixth the cruelest, jesting letter mocking her for her attempts. Throwing the letter aside, she goes on to meet each of the five gentlemen, hoping beyond hope that one will set fire to her heart.
Adam, Marquess of Seaton, thinks the letter begging for a marriage of love to be most ridiculous. Having already been brokenhearted, he is determined to remove the idea of love from every other young lady’s heart and thus writes a dark response. When Miss Millington catches his eye, Adam is determined to ignore her, yet discovers himself more eager for her company. When she mentions a love match, he cannot help but laugh – and finds their instant separation deeply painful.
Will he give his heart another opportunity for love? And what will Miss Millington say when she discovers that he was the one who wrote that cruel letter back to her in response?
