Isabelle

was an American debutante who'd been cavorting in Paris with artists, poets and other Stateside ex-pats. Her exquisite beauty was surpassed only by her endless charm and charisma. Many became impossibly smitten with Isabelle after only a few fleeting moments.

One night she rescued the wine-sodden Liam from a spirited disagreement over a rather large tab. The next morning, a fetching British stranger appeared on her doorstep. Andrew had been trawling the Parisian streets for days in search of his brother. As Liam continued to sleep off the night, the two got much better acquainted.

Three days later, Andrew convinced Isabelle to return to England with him. She soon found herself at the House of Carrington, a different life altogether.
