He avoids middle-class women because he feels responsible for the death of his former fiancee, But Wyneth challenges him in a manner he can't resist. When he tests her resolve by offering to make her his mistress, thinking she will refuse, he is shocked when she agrees. She claims she is a tart, but he can't reconcile the claim to what he sees. A light-hearted clash of wits keeps him guessing about her status and ultimately leads him to Wales to discover her secret. Just as he discovers she is everything he wants, but has vowed to avoid, treacherous accidents begin to happen, placing their love and lives in deadly peril.
