Blurb: 
She was the flower of Bermondsey, an East End slum, who rose to become a star. But Poppy Duveen quit the stage to marry Freddie Plummett, the only "gentleman" she had ever known--the bounder who died, leaving her in the castle and clutches of his formidable uncle, Hugo, the dazzling Duke of Guildham.

How could she admit, even to herself, the dangerous attraction she tried to ignore? Clearly, Hugo thought her a waif, a common poor relation. Well, she'd show him and his toplofty family. She'd return to the stage as Poppy Plummett, conquer London, and make a mockery of them all!
