Orphaned at a young age, Prudence is raised by her aunt, Lady Castleton, in the grand but decaying Castleton House. Prudence is a kind and gentle soul, but she is also strong-willed and independent.

When Prudence meets the dashing and charming Lord Ashford, she believes she has found the man who can give her the life she has always longed for. But Ashford is not what he seems, and Prudence soon finds herself caught in a web of deceit and danger.
