The elderly and ill fourth Viscount Longstreet summons Darius Lindsey to a discreet meeting, where he proposes the means for Darius to extricate himself from a life of shame and repay his family's debts.

As weeks pass, Darius makes love to Vivian but also teaches her how to deal with the world after William has died.
