Summary

The Governess and the Duke


Governess Miss Viola Winslow is quite familiar with the rules of society, and her place in it. Still, it hasn't stopped her from being horribly in love with the Duke of Huntington for years . But while the duke knows little of her foolish passions, the same cannot be said of Viola's charge--a precocious fourteen-year-old obsessed with her governess's secret romance. As a confirmed bachelor with no interest in marriage, the Duke of Huntington prefers his estate at Moorcliff Castle to the hustle, bustle, and utter nonsense of London society. He's far more content with a glass of excellent whiskey and the calm of the country. Until his peace is shattered by the enchanting Miss Viola, and her injured young charge. Unable to travel or leave, Miss Viola has no choice but to remain at Moorcliff--where avoiding the duke is all but impossible. Somewhere between late night run-ins and a fake date in the most unlikely of places, their chemistry stops feeling one-sided. But when he discovers the secret she's been hiding all along, there's nothing that will save them from scandal.
