Rose Rosegarden -que odia su nombre, su apellido, y las rosas en general- no quiere ni maridos ni amantes, ni montar escándalos como los que lady Roseanne ha vivido.

Alguien que simule ser un pretendiente a cambio de dinero, que la corteje a ojos de todo Londres, pero que tenga muy claro que jamás habrá nada entre ellos. Lo mejor quehace lord Charles Cherry en la vida es maldecirse a sí mismo. Pero ¿cómo no hacerlo, si es incapaz de ganar una sola mano de cartas en un mundo donde los caballeros poco más pueden hacer? A esas alturas casi le ha quedado claro que es un hombre de mucha suerte. Eso sí, de la mala. Aunque, en definitiva, también debe contar con una pizca de la otra, de la mejor de las fortunas, porque, justo cuando empezaba a temerse el visitar la cárcel por deudas, la hermosa Mary Rose le ha hecho una propuesta imposible de rechazar. De lo que no está tan seguro, es de si podrá cumplir todas sus condiciones y no enamorarse de ella.
