Dr. Julius Christopher plans to use the invention for his own salacious scheme. Can Dr. Nicholas Ramsay prevent his beloved, the virginal debutante Helena Phillips, from being the next patient?</p> <p><strong>The Doctor and The Debutante</strong><br /> Nicholas Ramsay, renouncing his aristocratic heritage and dark past, has chosen a career as a doctor. He arrives in London ready to embark upon his practice and find a suitable wife.</p> <p>Helena Phillips, born into scandal and disgrace, is making her London debut.

A taste of passion leaves Helena longing for more, and her lovesick wretchedness is confused for hysteria, a mysterious ailment afflicting many Victorian women.</p> <p><strong>A Devious Scheme</strong><br /> Dr. Julius Christopher's new electro-mechanical vibrating machine for the treatment of hysteria is the perfect device to test his radical theory of female sexuality. To fully explore his hypothesis, he requires a virgin and seeks to ensnare Helena for his experiment.</p> <p><strong>Can He Save Her?</strong><br /> Nicholas is determined to rescue Helena from the clutches of Dr. Christopher. But to prove he is worthy of Helena's hand, Nicholas must reconcile with his past, embrace his future, and show her pleasure is more profound when coupled with love.</p> <p><strong>The Harwell Heirs</strong><br /> Victorian aristocracy has very strict rules concerning marital connections and familial obligations.
