Produktbeschreibung

Rajesh William de Redvers assumed he would return to India after his Grand Tour and continue his life there. His father once chose his new home and his Indian wife over his family in England. But circumstances forced Rajesh and his family to return to England when his father inherited the title of the Earl of Devon. Unwilling to remain where he didn't belong, Rajesh spent the next seven years privateering. But more untimely deaths cause this second son of a second son to become earl. What happens when the unwilling earl finds himself with a title and two nieces to raise?

Charlotte "Charlie" Pedrick is looking for her fifth governess assignment after leaving her smuggler family and village. Age, illness, and two sets of wandering hands forced her from her previous assignments. A chance glimpse at an advertisement leads to a second chance meeting when she recognizes the man who saved her from her last employer's lecherous son. Instant attraction abounds, but class and cultural differences could stand between these soulmates. What happens when the unexpected governess finds herself in the arms of her employer, and secrets and scandals threaten their newfound love?

In the midst of falling in love, treachery abounds.

Rajesh doesn't believe his father's, his brother's, or his sister-in-law's death were accidents. The East India Company is holding a grudge, and Charlie's smuggler family only complicates matters. This couple rides into a dangerous unknown when they must face those who would target them with subterfuge and death.

Immerse yourself in this STEAMY Regency novella love story set along England's southern coast and discover a diverse cast of characters.
