Evelyn Berkeley wants to be married. However, after four seasons with no proposals, she decides to take matters into her own hands. She sets her sights on the most logical choice, but the sudden arrival of his old friend threatens to throw her plans off course.
Oliver Marten has no desire to marry. He dreams only of telling his late grandfather's military stories but arrives in London frustrated that he lacks the skills to do so. When Oliver discovers not only Evelyn's scheme to marry his friend, but also her talent for writing, he devises a plan to benefit them both.
As they work together, Evelyn and Oliver are forced to reexamine their plans as their circumstances - and feelings - begin to change. Can they overcome their stubbornness enough to see that what each of them wants is right in front of them?
