Confronted with an intolerable marriage to a man she cannot abide, Caprice Lambert decides to take refuge with her childhood friend. Dressed as a stableboy, she flees to Dorset, determined not to return until her parents see reason and abandoned their ridiculous plans. But things go sadly awry when, upon arriving at what she thinks is her destination, she finds herself in the wrong house entirely.
What initally seems like a disaster actually takes a turn for the best for she is discovered by the delightfully eligible Lord Merridew, a man beset by problems.In her guise as stableboy, Caprice finds her help enlisted as his lordship battles dubious relatives, French spies and the unexpected appearance of a body. It's challenging, but it all fades into insignificants next to her growning attraction to the man. It hardly seems fair that, the one time she meets somebdoy who can steal her heart, she is stuck in a pair of breeches and looking like a street urchin!
But then things change because, before too long his lordship discovers her secret and realizes the boy he had come to trust has actually been lying all along. And worse still, this lady that he suddenly cannot keep his hands off has been acting with complete impropriety.
Can Caprice come about? Or will she find that this time, bold deeds and a headstrong manner cannot save the day...
