Dependent on her aunt's charity, the orphan girl has steadfastly refused to succumb to Captain Crispin Wolfe's indefatigable attempts to seduce her. Declaring himself her regent, Wolfe vows to block attempts to marry her off, provoking Fawn's aunt to jealousy. One night, Wolfe delivers a devastating message and Fawn realizes that only the handsome rake can save her.
