When Frederick Vance runs out of money at the gaming tables, he offers the one thing he has left: his sister's hand in marriage, written on a single scrap of paper. The Duke of Renfrew wins the hand outright = and tears the paper to pieces in front of the room. But refusing to collect a wife doesn't end the scandal. It only begins it, as Eleanor Vance must rebuild her family's name from the wreckage her brother left behind, under the watchful, complicated attention of the one man who refused to take what wasn't freely given.
