London, 1853 - Lady Catherine and Alexander Gray share a passion... because Catherine IS Alexander Gray! But as Catherine's debut into society approaches, she must confront the inevitable end to her secret life. Determined to leave her mark, she sets her sights on winning the upcoming fencing tournament and having her nom de guerre immortalized on the coveted traveling trophy. With her mother intent on securing her a respectable marriage, Catherine realizes this is her final chance to revel in the freedom she holds dear. However, when she finds herself endangering her own life to save the captivating Marquess, her secret identity is revealed, and the consequences are unforeseen. Can the Mad Marquess find a bride? Daniel, Marquess of Huntley, yearns to be embraced by London society, but he must first dispel the rumors surrounding his father's alleged madness. In his pursuit of social acceptance, Daniel plans to marry a woman of impeccable standing and connections, someone who can ensure their future offspring inherit the most distinguished of pedigrees. The last thing he wants is to be entangled with a daring young woman who flouts societal norms, masquerading as a boy. Keeping Catherine at arm's length seems the safest course of action for him. It comes down to a question of honor... When a destitute earl uncovers Catherine's secret and uses it to blackmail her, she finds herself backed into a corner, teetering on the brink of social ruin. Forced into a marriage to salvage her reputation, Catherine grapples with the question of whom to marry.
