English Summary/英文概要： A mesmerizing story of passionate awakening and redemption, Mary Balogh’s new novel unites a war hero consigned to darkness with a remarkable woman who finds her own salvation by showing him the light of love.
Desperate to escape his mother’s matchmaking, Vincent Hunt, Viscount Darleigh, flees to a remote country village. But even there, another marital trap is sprung. So when Miss Sophia Fry’s intervention on his behalf finds her unceremoniously booted from her guardian’s home, Vincent is compelled to act. He may have been blinded in battle, but he can see a solution to both their problems: marriage.
At first, quiet, unassuming Sophia rejects Vincent’s proposal. But when such a gloriously handsome man persuades her that he needs a wife of his own choosing as much as she needs protection from destitution, she agrees. Her alternative is too dreadful to contemplate. But how can an all-consuming fire burn from such a cold arrangement? As friendship and camaraderie lead to sweet seduction and erotic pleasure, dare they believe a bargain born of desperation might lead them both to a love destined to be?
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 玛丽·巴洛格的新小说讲述了一个有关热情觉醒和自我救赎的故事，一位深陷黑暗的战争英雄的生活被一位杰出的女性照亮，而她自己也在这一历程中找到了救赎。
文森特·亨特子爵为了摆脱母亲安排的政治婚姻，逃到了边远的乡村。但即便是在那里，也有另一个婚姻陷阱正在慢慢展开。而正在此时，苏菲·费里小姐从家里被赶了出来，文森特觉得是自己采取行动的时候了。他曾经在战争中盲目，但他现在找到了一个可以解决他和苏菲小姐双方问题的办法：婚姻。
起初，文静谦逊的苏菲拒绝了文森特的求婚。但是，当一位如此英俊的男子苦苦劝说，他想要自己选择伴侣的权利，而这样也能使苏菲不至于忍饥挨饿，苏菲这才同意了。这个决定细细想来绝对是个糟糕的决定。互帮互助的友情逐渐演变成为了甜蜜的诱惑和快乐，他们也没有想到绝望下的一场交易竟是命中注定爱情的开端。（XAT）
