A successful horse breeder and self-proclaimed rake, Harry Lester samples women like wines.
But after having his heart trampled upon by someone he actually loved, he has no intention of falling for a woman again, let alone be ensnared by the trap of marriage. Now, with a large inheritance to his name, Harry knows that he'd best start running from London's matchmaking mothers and widows.
Harry heads for the racing town of Newmarket, only to encounter Mrs. Lucinda Babbacombe, a beautiful, independent widow. And before he knows it, Harry vows to protect Lucinda from the town full of lonely gambling men, despite her refusal to accept his countless offers of help.
Lucinda is extraordinary-an intelligent, tender, marriageworthy woman-but will Harry let himself be taken prisoner in this most passionate of traps?
