Raised by her evil grandmother, Emmeline has dreamed of escaping ever since she was only a child. For years, she saved all the money she could just to find out her grandmother Esther Somerset had given all of it away.
After a terrible fight, her grandmother died and Emmeline is all alone in the world, with little more than what she’s wearing. Trying to clear her mind, she went into the lake with her kayak but gets trapped by a powerful storm of wind and rain and thunder. All of a sudden, she is pulled into a maelstrom then under the water.
When she resurfaces, she finds herself in 1840 Victorian England confronted by a sobbing child promising to be good.
A couple of days later, she meets the Duke of Rutland, who makes her an indecent proposal. The attraction between them is unmistakable, but she’s not willing to become his slave, at least not until he changes his proposal into one impossible to refuse.
Step by step he introduces her into his dark world of pleasure and pain, bliss and submission and she falls into it as if she had been born to be his entirely.
But she knows he’ll soon get tired of her, and then, what will happen to her and the children? How will she go on with her life when she is a fallen woman from the 21st century with no prospects and without the man she has grown to love?
