When her mother sets her sights on the questionable Lord Bremerton as a possible suitor, Caroline struggles with her instincts and the true nature of her heart. She longs for adventure, passion, love, and most of all Jack Culhane, an unconventional Irish-America bachelor with new money and no title - a completely unacceptable suitor, in the eyes of Caroline's mother.
