Lord Byron Whittaker is a true catch. He's as thoroughbred as the stallions he loves to ride. Betrothed to the lovely Lady Sophia, his life really is to be envied...until the day he is thrown from his uncontrollable horse. The once vivacious Lord, now a paraplegic, loses all hope. Worse, he loses his fiancée. His perfect existence comes crumbling down around him, and the only person able to handle this changed, angry man is his gentle yet firm caregiver, Cecilia Fountain. Charged with his private care, Cecilia helps Lord Whittaker on his road to recovery. And recover he does - so swiftly, in fact, that he soon finds himself back in his old life, forgetting the woman who put up with him and loved him in secret during his darkest days. Rejected, Cecilia returns to work at the hospital. Unable to forget him, though, she dreams of one day being back in the arms of the first man she ever truly loved....
