Here you will remain.” Recently widowed, Jane, Duchess of Coleford, has moved to an isolated part of Cornwall with her young daughter.

Despite his many offers to purchase the crumbling house she inherited from her late husband, she stubbornly insists on staying.

It is not long before the two become adversaries, both determined to ignore the attraction that has flared between them.
