The Arrangement is Book 2 of the seven-part Survivors' Club series, following after The Proposal. Six men and one woman, all variously wounded in or by the Napoleonic Wars, spent a number of years healing and recovering together at Penderris Hall in Cornwall, home of the Duke of Stanbrook. Now they spend a few weeks there each year, renewing their friendship and supporting one another in their efforts to live normal, productive lives. This is Vincent Hunt, Viscount Darleigh's story.

Although Vincent is only twenty-three years old, his female relatives are pressing him to marry. He is blind and he has recently inherited his title and vast estate. When they produce a suitable bride for him, he feels trapped and flees with his batman-turned-valet.

When Vincent finds out about it, he has to decide what to do. But really, there is only one honorable course of action.

By the time she steps in to rescue Viscount Darleigh from the matrimonial schemes of one of those aunts and her uncle and cousin, she looks like an unkempt scarecrow and can easily be mistaken for a boy. Her relatives turn her out of the house in the middle of the night with nothing but a small bag of belongings and the exact fare for the stagecoach ride to London. And then, after she has been offered temporary refuge in the vicarage near her former home, Viscount Darleigh himself comes calling...
