She finds work as a paid companion, but she is not what is expected in one, so when the Earl offers her this strange masquerade, she accepts.

Besides, though most people seem to believe that Arthur St. Merryn has ice water in his veins, she suspects that there is a tightly controlled passion there.
This offers a good romance with a nice addition of humor and adventure.
