  Handsome, wealthy and an accomplished rider, Trydon, Duke of Westacre is overwhelming popular with Society ladies. So much so that he’s sick to death of the constant matchmaking by his Godmother and countless Society ‘mamas’ and rides away through the night to Brighthelmstone in search of peace.
   
  What he encounters there is quite the opposite. In the foggy darkness, he stumbles across a gang of smugglers. When they mistake him for one of their own, he finds himself embroiled in their crime and is amazed to discover that their leader is a young woman!
   
  What follows is a helter-skelter adventure in which an aristocrat becomes a smuggler and strives to save his ‘Amazon’ gang leader from the blackmail that has brought her to criminality. Uncovering a French plot to assassinate the Prince Regent, he enlists the lovely Georgia, his smuggling Amazon, in a mission to expose the assassin. And amidst events fraught with danger, Trydon and Georgie’s mutual suspicion turns first to admiration, then trust and finally to a contraband kind of love.

  "The Marquis and Marquise de Castillon together with their young son, Jean Pierre, were forced to flee France for England when the French Revolution broke out in 1789.
  Jean Pierre was educated at Eton and only returned to Paris when Napoleon came to power. It was not long before he joined Napoleons Army, survived the Retreat from Moscow and was badly wounded at the Battle of Waterloo.
  Whilst in hospital he became friends with Colonel Hubert Dawlish who was in the next bed. Before they both underwent life threatening operations, they made joint wills leaving everything to the other.
  Jean Pierre, now the Marquis, survived the operation and returned to his ancestral Chateau to find it looted and in a terrible state of repair. Another blow awaited him when the late Colonel Dawlishs three children arrived as he was now their Guardian. He felt too ill and depressed even to want to see them.
  The eldest, the beautiful Marietta, was gifted with the powers of healing and herbs and she enthusiastically set about not only bringing the Marquis back to health, but to restoring the Chateau to its former glory.
  She persuaded some soldiers to help her with the Chateau and through her prayers made a stunning discovery that changed the Marquiss fortunes.
  How she found love where she least expected it and showed the Marquis that love and prayer can heal any wounds and overcome all obstacles is told in this exciting and unusual book by BARBARA CARTLAND."

  Having lost her parents at an even younger age, she is beholden to her imperious Aunt Margaret and Uncle Simon, who have taken her in at their sombre mansion, Letchfield Park. 
  Now they are insisting that Karena should marry her cousin, Cyril, and, as if the fact that she does not love him is not enough, he is also mentally deficient and repellent.
