And when one kiss leads to two, three, and four, the mathematician may lose count, and the lady may, for the first time, find herself speechless. But forced to spend a week in close company they discover that first impressions are not always reliable. She doesn't care that his leg is less than perfect, it's his personality she can't abide. But even if she could find a way to forgive him, it wouldn't matter. Sarah has never forgiven Hugh for the duel he fought that nearly destroyed her family.
Besides, a reckless duel has left this brilliant mathematician with a ruined leg, and now he could never court a woman like Sarah, much less dream of marrying her. Hugh Prentice has never had patience for dramatic females, and if Lady Sarah Pleinsworth has ever been acquainted with the words shy or retiring, she's long since tossed them out the window.
