Plot Summary of Love's Duet
"Sophia Drayton was rather proud of her plans for revenge against her relative, Camille Damon. She became even more sure what she was doing was right when she was stranded at his home. The better she got to know him, the less she liked him. Until she got a glimpse of the tormented man inside. Then she fell in love with him, desparately sorry for the revenge she instigated against him. "
Laura J. Miller, Resident Scholar
