Especially when he begins to desire strong-willed and low-born Alice Croft, the seamstress to Lord Hawkesbury's Players and the woman helping him spy on his sister's lover. If anyone finds out, Leo's chance of marrying well will be ruined. 
  However the scandal will be nothing compared to what happens when Alice cracks through the hard shell around Leo’s heart. Because how can he afford to love a woman who only wants him for the fortune she thinks he possesses?
