Edward Rochester endlessly searched the world for love, but after ten long years of wandering abroad he is more convinced than ever—it is an impossible quest. In a bitter, disappointed frame of mind he at last returns home to England, believing that true love will never be his. But an unexpected encounter with destiny in the shape of the remarkable young woman, Jane Eyre, upends his world.
She is like no one he has ever met, and their acquaintance soon grows into friendship. He finds her full of whimsical contrasts as he recounts to her tales of his travels, even freely confessing his many faults. She listens without judgment, yet in her eyes he fancies empathy, perhaps even a longing of her own?
One fateful night, Jane's daring and courage snatch him from a horrible, burning death. In the intense intimacy of the aftermath, Edward's feelings will be denied no longer: he is desperately in love with her. But can he resist, knowing the terrible secret of his past must keep them forever apart?
For a man whose youthful surrender to a duty long forgotten forever altered the course of his life, Edward's choice is clear: yield again to the will of others, to the man-made laws which shackle him to one woman while his body and spirit yearn for another, or defy Society, the Law—and even God—to have what he wants.
