Due to the death of her older brother in the Great War, she is also about to lose her home. Giving into desperation, Jessie pretends to be a soldier and she sets out fix the situation. Discovering her society life has done little to prepare her for the rough existence of the army, it is all she can do to survive let alone find and destroy the man who claims to be the next earl. After she is discovered and then injured, her incredibly handsome tent mate sends her home without divulging her secret. Having failed in her undertaking, she braces herself for the forthcoming arrival of the elusive earl and the loss of her home. Raised in a London flat, Henry James Colter has spent his life coming up from the bottom. Through a series of interesting events, he ends up at Eton, then Prison Pembroke, and then as an adopted member of one of the wealthiest families in all of England. Having served valiantly in military intelligence during the war, he is content to find himself a spy in His Majesty’s service. Suddenly, a long lost aunt materializes with the revelation that he is the 7th Earl of Templeton. After his current assignment on the Irish front with Royal Irish Constabulary, he will claim his title and inherit his fortune. Now if he could only figure out why his tent mate is a woman pretending to be a soldier…. Fate had something in mind other than the earl’s untimely demise when it sent Jessie to Ireland. Her misguided scheme puts her on a path to a new life, and ultimately the fulfillment of her dreams.
