The widowed Earl of Essex, betrothed to Lady Juliana … is hopelessly distracted by the rescue missions for the governess of his three children.
When Lady Margaret Colton and daughter-in-law, Lady Georgiana Colton, flee the revolution of Napoleonic France to live with distant relations, Georgiana is forced to accept the position of governess for the widowed Earl’s three children.
The Earl, however, only has eyes for his intended, Lady Juliana; though there is a certain something, a “je ne sais quoi…” regarding his new governess.
Will he ever be able to stop rescuing the younger Lady Colton from her precarious predicaments? When it comes to dealing with his headstrong daughter and losing a string of previous governesses, this beautiful governess is proving herself to be quite capable! Perhaps it is he, who is in need of rescue!
This is a delightful story with a theme of kindness. The author has incorporated a number of French words and their translations into this novel, making this book an excellent choice to brush up on your use of the beautiful and romantic French language.
