As far as Georgina is concerned, she is looking for a man of mystery who stands out from the crowd, and she is very doubtful that her parents would find such a man for her. But then comes her surprise when she finally meets Jonathan. He is completely different from how she imagined him; dashing and charming, he makes her knees go all weak just by being in his presence. However, there is a second shock for her; it seems that Jonathan is not convinced she would be a good match for him, being in his eyes a mere inexperienced, naïve girl just out of the schoolroom.

Unable to repay all his debts, he fears that he will be punished and sent away to debtor’s jail. But his day takes on another twist!

Realising their misunderstanding, Robert and Harriet both finally agree, after much argument, that Harriet must return home and the two must get back to their separate lives. Their plan to return Harriet all fares well until they are ambushed during their journey by a highwayman.
