Two more shockingly risqué dances through the Regency, as conventional rules of behavior for women in Society are tossed gleefully aside...

Two exceptional young women who refuse to follow the paths ordained by their situations. Both are blessed with minds that refuse to lie dormant beneath their bonnets, and both must follow a path far from the ordinary.

One is "ruined", and pursues that role with enthusiasm, marching to a tune only she can hear. The other is beautiful, brilliant and a bastard. But her virtues cannot redeem her in the eyes of Society until Fate takes a hand on a rainy afternoon.

The two gentlemen who find themselves enmeshed in the lives of these unusual women are in for an exciting gallop to passions unimagined and desires unbound.
