Felicity Montague is through with pretending she prefers society parties to books about bonesetting- or that she's not smarter than most people she knows, or that she cares about anything more than her dream of being a doctor.
A year after an accidentally whirlwind of Europe, which she spent evading highwaymen and pirates with her brother Monty, Felicity has returned to England with two goals in mind- avoid the marriage proposal of Callum Doyle, a lovestruck suitor from Edinburgh, and enroll in medical school. However, her intellect and passion will never be enough in the eyes of the administrators, who see men as the sole guardians of science.
