Julia Carleton's relatives agreed on one thing.. A mere female was not fit to manage the vast fortune that her father had left her. They would take control of it - and take control of Julia as well. Julia, however had her own ideas. With her new wealth, she could afford to lead a new life, be free to do what she wanted and love whom she chose. But her flight to freedom threw her into the arms of the notorious Lord Alysford, whose reptuation as a rake and gambler made him the last man in the world she should trust. And Julia had to risk more than money to find out if the irresistable Alysford was out to steal her fortune or her heart.
