For him, she is an annoying woman who thinks she knows everything…
Hugh Prentice. A pointless and risky duel had left the lord with a special talent in mathematics with a crippled leg and deep sorrow. The last thing that could charm him was the intense personality of Lady Sarah Pleinsworth.For her, he is just a madman…

Sarah would never forgive Hugh for the duel that had brought her family one step away from destruction. But even if she found the strength to forgive him, it wouldn't matter. And that's because she could never tolerate his character.

The two of them will go through another trial of fate. They will have to keep each other company for a week. They have no choice. But during this time, they will discover that the first impression is not always reliable. One kiss will lead to a second, and then to a third… until the lord loses count for the first time and Sarah loses her words. A story that will touch your most sensitive chords.
