Hannah Cooper fled England to escape the aristocratic marriage her father had arranged for her. Now in the Colonies as a "widowed seamstress," she's poor but content with her modest and independent life. But War has come to the Colonies and with it, the dreaded "quartering act." All households are ordered to feed and shelter British troops.
When Hannah finds Colonel Wolfgang Preston at her cottage's modest gate, her first thought is, of course, to refuse him. He is an officer and could commandeer much more lavish quarters; she's a single woman with a one room cottage. But he won't take no for an answer and soon the reason why becomes obvious: Wolfgang Preston is the Duke of Northumberland and is the very man her father had arranged that she married. And he's found her. And he can't decide what he's going to do with his lovely bride first: put her over his knee or into his bed.
