Left unable to walk by a childhood illness, Lady Jennifer has grown up to make a happy place for herself in society. When Ben Ellis comes across Lady Jennifer, he instantly understands her yearning. But he must be careful. He is the bastard son of the late Earl of Stratton. Though he was raised with the earl's family, he knows he does not really belong in the world of the ton. Both families are alarmed by the growing friendship and perhaps more that they sense developing between the two. A duke's sister certainly cannot marry the bastard son of an earl. Except sometimes, love can find a way.
