A case of mistaken identity...
Abigail Gibbons is shunned by the majority of people she meets due to her illegitimacy, and thus, when she's summoned from school by the Earl of Waterford to become his wife's paid companion, she is grateful for the opportunity to live amongst the titled and wealthy. But unbeknownst to Abigail, the earl passes away before her arrival in London, leaving Abigail's future uncertain and in the hands of his grandson, Jackson Danvers, the new bone-meltingly handsome Earl of Waterford. At their first meeting, Jackson serves Abigail the greatest insult by accusing her of being his late grandfather's paramour. Abigail declares him a scoundrel and leaves the premises, only to be hunted down by the new earl at his grandmother's request. Lady Waterford faints at her first sight of the beautiful Abigail because she has some clue as to her late husband's machinations, but she is sweet to this beautiful girl in a tattered dress, who takes the position, which she now needs because of her lack of funds. Abigail is now under the watchful gaze of the man whose hooded glances and lingering stares make her blood simmer with desire.
A switch at birth...
To acquire a necessary heir, the late Earl of Waterford switched his granddaughter, Abigail Gibbons, for an illegitimate baby boy, Jackson Sethos Rameses Danvers, the new Earl of Waterford, the same domineering man who falls hopelessly in love with his grandmother's lovely companion-only to have her deceive him in the end.
A family secret revealed...
Abigail and Jackson's love triumphs over all challenges, including society's censure, an attempt to end Abigail's life, Jackson's mother's first overwhelming suspicion that siblings are about to wed, and Jackson finding out his life is built of falsehoods and his anger at Abigail for keeping this news from him. The headstrong Abigail refuses to allow her one true chance at happiness to slip away without a battle, while Jackson, who disappears into the seedy streets of the wharf district, discovers how everything by which he has defined his life pales in comparison to Abigail's love. He realizes he is the man Abigail deserves, a man who has nothing left to lose but his heart.
