Between his mother pestering him about finding a bride of high social standing maintaining his estates and title without enough funding and worrying over his brothers he requires an outlet.

With an affinity for numbers she keeps the books for her father's shipping company but is desperate for a way to defend herself against the coarse and crude men she encounters in the office near the docks.
