Lilla Zaidie Rennick, a young woman traveling to England, faces a forced marriage to the Marquis of Byfleet. However, her journey takes an unexpected turn when Lord Redgrave, a man she once loved, arrives in an advanced spaceship called the Astronef. Redgrave, a pioneering inventor, proposes a daring expedition to the moon. Lilla, torn between her duty and her heart, finds herself drawn to Redgrave's adventurous spirit. Their passionate encounters ignite a conflict within Lilla, who must choose between the comfort of a traditional marriage and the thrilling prospect of space travel with Redgrave.
