A damaged soldier bound to a musician with a past.
They have never spoken. But for two years, the haunted soldier has attended Natalie's concerts at Maida Gardens, bringing her a little self-belief and a few harmless daydreams.
Captain Lord Richard Gorse, wounded in body and soul, finds the beautiful harpist's music is the only thing that soothes his troubled spirit. Until, one evening, he finally has something to say to her.
Unfortunately, it is also the evening that Natalie's past catches up with her. The man to whom she was once engaged will go to any lengths to bring her back under his thumb. Richard appoints himself her protector and together they fight their old ghosts and new dangers. But if they find physical pleasure along the way, even if they fall in love, the social gulf between them is too great to allow lasting happiness.
Or is it?
