Lady Cassandra Monroe is about to see the man of her dreams for the first time in seven years. He may be nearly betrothed to her cousin, but that doesn't stop her from admiring Captain Julian Swift from afar. Cass soon learns that her cousin has invented a fictitious friend, Patience Bunbury, whom she uses to escape social obligations including those with her fiance. But when Julian doesn't recognize Cass, a meddling friend invites them all to a house party declaring that Cass is in fact Miss Bunbury. Can Cass win Julian's heart amid the most scandalous lie of all? Captain Julian Swift has been away in the army fighting the French. After nearly dying at Waterloo, he's recovered and coming home to make some much needed changes to his life. Julian is determined to find his estranged fiancee and end things with her as soon as possible. An unexpected invitation to a house party where she'll be staying seems just the thing until he meets the beautiful Miss Bunbury. Will he lose his heart to a woman who seems too perfect to be real?
