    Without a villain, love can be simply perfect or perfectly simple.

    David Faraday’s sister Ariadni gets engaged to Edwin Beaumont in the hopes of marrying her younger brother David off to Edwin’s step-sister Merilee. If that isn’t complicated enough, David realizes Ari’s strategy and enlists the aid of Ralph Hanover, his comrade in arms, to rescue Ari. When they all arrive at the Willows, Merilee’s country estate, David falls hopelessly in love with Meri.
    Meri’s stepbrother Edwin tries to kill Meri’s dog Princess, so Ari breaks their engagement. Edwin gossips about Meri in the village, causing her to ride away from home in despair. David and Ralph rescue her and all go to London hoping for a happy wedding. Plus Ralph plans to propose to Ari. But the banished Edwin is at large and both soldiers anticipate trouble, though they never expect an abduction.

    Murder, mayhem, and mystery

    To protect her destitute sister and niece, Roslyn Clary must appeal to the new lord of the manor, Mark St. John. A temporary role if her sister delivers a boy child to assume the title. Roslyn is suspicious of Mark's generosity, and vows never to fall in love with him no matter how heroic he seems.

    Reeling with attraction for Roslyn, Mark moves all of them to his mother's house in London. He desperately wants to court Roslyn, but first must determine if the St. John family is in danger since it appears his brother was murdered. There's a long list of likely suspects, and it seems Mark has put not only himself in the queue of potential victims but Roslyn as well.
