Faced with a choice between becoming a mistress or a lifetime locked away in Bedlam, Lady Arabella Whitmore decides to run away instead.

An outcast from proper English society, Dr. Michael Longford barely survived the war against Napoleon during his time as a field surgeon. Known as ÒSatanÕs Physician, Ó Michael is both physically and emotionally scarred. After all, what woman would desire a man like him in her bed? When a dying Aria is discovered hiding in his stables, Michael must use every medical trick he knows in order to save her life. Then, he must decide what to do with her. However, as Christmas closes in, what once seemed like an easy decision is no longer quite so clear. Will Michael make the right choice? And can Aria help free Michael from the demons that lurk inside of him before itÕs too late?
