Lord Brian Kennington, Fifth Earl of Connlee, is a master of persuasion. When he crosses paths with the not-too-proper Lady Minerva Fox, he determines that she needs a bit of excitement in her life, and he knows just how to deliver. He will live up to his moniker, the Earl of Persuasion, as he sweeps her along a path of adventure and romance.

The only problem with his plan: Love was not a part of the equation.
