When does convenience become inconvenient?
Considered by society to be the odd Longborough sister, Elizabeth has decided two failed Seasons are as many as she can tolerate. But her plan to return home and run her father's household is shattered when he remarries and an unfortunate incident at a local assembly limits her prospects even more.
Returned to England with war injuries that resulted in the amputation of his leg, Major Michael Warleigh hates the idea of being dependent on anyone, especially his brother and sister-in-law. Their overwrought pity and plans for his invalid care make him shudder.
Neither of them like the prospect of returning home, nor do they have many choices in the matter. What began as a flippant remark grows into a genuine proposal, and they make a marriage of convenience. But when the past that Michael thought buried surfaces Elizabeth's budding hope for more than convenience are put in doubt.
