Synopsis

When Lady Constance Morrow finds herself held against her will aboard a ship bound for the American colonies-a ship filled with 'tobacco brides' and felons-she is quite sure that as soon as she arrives she will find a reasonable man who will believe her father is an earl and send her back on the next ship to England.

Drew wins Constance as his bride but soon realizes he has taken on much more than he bargained for
