Amanda Wells becomes stranded on an island and seeks shelter from Urquhart Tower. The master of the place is Alaine Urquhart, and his servant mistakes Amanda for the Bride of Alaine, an heiress who is believed to restore the family to its former glory. However, Amanda’s more noticeable friend Judy Macrae is the one to attract the interest of Alaine himself. Can Amanda turn things around still and make the utterly charming man notice her, instead? The compelling love tale from the 20th century is written by Rose Burghley, a pseudonym of the prolific romance writer Ida Pollock.
