Determined to keep the ancestral estate within the family, Sir Harry hopes to pass the legacy to his daughter, Emily, and is counting on her future husband to adopt the Hotspur name. However, George, a charming yet reckless gambler, has his own agenda—winning Emilys heart to save himself from financial ruin.
