Die beschützte Erbin ... Einst war sie mit dem zukünftigen Herzog von Strathmore verlobt, doch nun findet sich die wunderschöne Lady Clarice in einer weit weniger schillernden Lage - als Gast auf dessen Hochzeit mit einer anderen Frau. Aber die Dinge sehen gleich viel besser aus, als der gutaussehende und charmante Halunke David Radley sie spüren lässt, dass zumindest in seinen Augen sie noch immer die beste Partie des Jahres ist. Der illegitime Sohn ... Als ältester Sohn des Herzogs von Strathmore wuchs David Radley zusammen mit den ehelichen Kindern seines Vaters auf. Doch nicht jeder in der Londoner Gesellschaft ist der Meinung, dass dieser junge Mann ein gleichwertiger Teil der Familie ist. Vor allem nicht Clarices Vater, der Earl of Langham, der seiner Tochter verbietet, sich mit David einzulassen. Seit Jahren schon ist David in Clarice verliebt, und es dauert nicht lange, bis die gegenseitige Zuneigung zu etwas viel Stärkerem heranwächst. Doch er spürt, dass Clarice etwas zu verbergen hat, und solange sie nicht bereit ist, dieses Geheimnis zu offenbaren, wird sie auch nicht frei sein, ihrem Herzen zu folgen. Trotz allem will David Clarice nicht aufgeben, auch dann nicht, als ein anderer sich um ihre Gunst bemüht.
