Miranda Thorpe simply didn't know her place! Her uncle and guardian told her it was at home with her aunt and in the shops of Nottingham. She insisted it was with him, in the reputable architectural firm of Thorpe and Brother. — Not only had she designed a perfect house, but Anthony, Viscount Farnesworth, was going to build it -- until her uncle convinced him he required a palace to win a wife... and the beautiful Lady Katherine Lovelace agreed.

Rash, impulsive, Miranda took matters into her own hands. She swore his home would be his castle. What matter if Lady Katherine shared it, not she? He would have not a palace, but the house of her heart ...a mansion for a lady!
