He returns to England hoping for the peaceful life of a country gentleman, though old enemies insist on challenging him on the field of honor, one after another.

As Sebastian and Milly explore their growing passion, they uncover a plot that will cost Sebastian his life and honor, unless he does battle once more."--Back cover.
