Here's the back cover blurb:
Mrs. Mary McAllister, a widow with a small daughter, was a very proper person, necessarily so because she was that unusual thing in the Washington of 1889, a working woman. Being a senator's aide brought her into the centre of power, and she could not afford to step wrongly. The arrival of Wall Street baron Jared Tunstall threatened her stable existence. His buccaneering spirit drew her like a magnet, and brought back feelings she thought long dead -- but when both had secrets to keep, how long could they survive the glare of public interest?
