A satisfying tale, well worth reading. The heroine, Lucy, has fallen on hard times due to her irresponsible father. The hero is looking for revenge against the father, but in the process he comes across Lucy and finds himself falling for her and wanting to protect her. It starts out with him doing little favors for her, and ends up with a major rescue. At first he thinks he will be satisfied to have her as a mistress, but then realizes that will not do. Lucy is falling in love with him too, but doesn't want to be dependent on him. An older couple who are close friends of the hero, and a scruffy street urchin that Lucy has more or less adopted as a brother, make for interesting secondary characters. Very sweet and touching.
