Londra, 1798. Per allontanare la sorella dal ricchissimo Lord Rasenby, un chiacchierato libertino del tutto inadatto a una giovane fanciulla, l'intraprendente Clarissa Warrington decide di fare al gentiluomo un'audace proposta: se lui le farà vivere un'avventura eccitante e indimenticabile, lei lo ricompenserà con una notte di passione. La giovane, in realtà, non ha la minima intenzione di rispettare il patto, ma l'affascinante conte non le lascia via di scampo, facendola innamorare perdutamente di sé. Solo quando il Marchese di Alchester, suo acerrimo nemico, rapisce Clarissa, Rasenby capisce di amarla e si lancia al loro inseguimento. Forse però è già troppo tardi.
