     Tragedy brings them together. Will love tear them apart?

     New York City, 1832. Clarissa Tanner is carefree and lighthearted until the sudden death of her parents.

     Nicholas is a man on a mission, searching for his missing brother. Fearing Liam may be the victim of foul play, Nicholas needs to keep a low-profile while conducting his search. He takes a position as a dance instructor, providing refresher lessons to the beautiful but distracted Clarissa.
