More DescriptionThe widowed Harriet, Lady Wingham, is staying with friends in London when she meets again the man who broke her heart six years ago, before her marriage, when he tried on two occasions to tempt her into becoming his mistress. The Duke of Tenby was not indifferent to her then, however, and he is not unaffected now when he sees her again. He arranges a meeting with her intending to offer her marriage, though he knows he will displease his family's expectations. Harriet misunderstands, however, and cuts into his proposal with an agreement to be his mistress until he has chosen a bride more suited to him in rank. And so begins an affair disastrous to them both, for their sense of honor is wounded and their hearts cannot be satisfied by such a clandestine arrangement.
