Miranda Cheever grows up believing that Nigel Bevelstoke, Viscount Turner, is the only man she will ever love. Years later, Turner has become a grieving widower whose bitterness makes him wary of affection, while Miranda is no longer the awkward child he remembers.

Their renewed acquaintance turns a long-held private devotion into a difficult courtship shaped by family loyalty, social expectation and Turner’s refusal to risk another emotional loss. The novel follows Miranda as she insists on being seen as an adult rather than as a convenient family friend.
