Giles Moncrief is the perfect heir, and he has devoted his entire life to becoming the Earl of Spelthorne. But lately his life has become a bit too predictable. In short, he's bored. The arrival of a gypsy caravan at the estate throws his well-ordered life into turmoil when a beautiful gypsy shows up on his doorstep claiming to be his deceased parents' long lost daughter. Caterina Dupeski claims to have been switched at birth for the unwanted son of a poor cottager. She even has proof. But there's a big difference between being born a lady and actually being a lady. Equipped with an indifferent education and no training in ton etiquette, she's the least likely candidate for the moniker "lady." Faced with an upheaval of all he knows and an impossible scandal, Giles strikes a bargain with Caterina; he proposes a marriage of convenience. He will train her to be his countess and give her the comfort of his wealth; in turn, he gets to keep the title, and society is none the wiser. Love was never part of the proposition, but they both get more than they bargained for.

Gammon Maddox, Earl of Camberly, has looks, manners, and a title. All he needs is the fortune to go with them. Years of familial excess have depleted the Camberly family coffers. With London creditors threatening certain doom, Gannon launches a desperate venture into Newport society, hoping to trade his title for an American heiress' wealth. Audrey St. Clair knows what she wants, and it's not an English earl. While other girls dream of Grace Church weddings, Audrey dreams of pursuing music at a Viennese conservatory. But first, she must thwart her parents' matchmaking efforts. When Audrey encounters Gannon Maddox during the Casino picnic, it is clear that he would prefer not to choose a bride under these circumstances. A risky plan begins to unfold: She'll guide him in some investments that will save his family finances without marriage, and in return, all he has to do is play the adoring suitor. The arrangement works well until they realize they're in danger from the very thing they'd feared the most--falling in love.

Isabella Hartfield has long suspected her marriage of convenience seven years ago to an aging Marquess was the motive for Tristan's sudden military enlistment. For years she has harbored guilt over driving him into danger. Now, she is widowed and Tristan has returned. In an attempt to repair the damage she did years ago, Isabella takes a Valentine's Day wager that she can find Tristan a wife from among the Ton by June, never daring to dream the wife he wants is her. The closer she gets to finding him a bride, the more her heart aches for him. For seven years Tristan Moreland has lived a double life on the war torn Continent as a secret agent for the Crown in the guise of a womanizing socialite officer. Now he is ready to come home to claim his land, his title and a wife--the love of his youth, Isabella Hartfield. But before Tristan can lay claim to his happiness and her heart, he must ferret out one last enemy of England who will go to any length to see Tristan dead. When his nemesis makes Isabella a target in order to draw him out, Tristan must choose between protecting his country or his love.
