Synopsis
"Lovely Grace Howard had every reason to be devoted to Sir Perry Lampman. This wealthy and gallant gentleman rescued her from poverty by making her his bride. Even more nobly, he did not withdraw his proposal or his affection when she confessed to a youthful folly in love that had compromised her virtue. But one thing she kept from her husband about the handsome lord who had betrayed her would turn the white lie she told her tender, trusting husband into something far more serious." -- Back cover.
