Spindle Cove is a quiet coastal village, just for maidens. Well-born, impressionable girls at risk of being seduced by the wrong gentlemen are sent by their families to Spindle Cove. Here they are to 'heal' with the good sea air, develop their talents, and live quiet lives. Susanna Finch is the village hostess and guardian of this true refuge, free from men and temptations. But with the arrival of a man... Retired from the war front against Napoleon after suffering an injury, Lieutenant Colonel Victor Bramwell now wants to regain command of his regiment. His plan takes him to Spindle Cove where, contrary to what he expected, he ends up receiving a title of count, a castle, and the responsibility of creating a militia to defend the village. It will be the stage for a true war of the sexes. Susanna fears that the presence of a militia in the village will lead the maidens astray. And the lieutenant colonel has to fulfill his mission to be able to return to the war. Thus, an authentic war of the sexes is born. But with the growing attraction they feel for each other, will they be able to keep their plans? Or will they declare themselves defeated by love?
