Meg doesn’t see how she could possibly work for Will, but brick by brick he wears down her heard. The last time she saw Will has haunted her, for she not only humiliated both him and herself but that was also the fateful night she lost her parents. Meg is determined not to be a burden though, and so she seeks a position that her friend had heard of in an Earl’s household, only to come face to face with Will Ryder, the man she rejected in a marriage proposal almost 10 years before.
Her uncle has been extremely generous taking Meg and both her orphan sisters into his household and supporting them after the death of their parents. Be sure to check out my Blog Tour post on this book, including an excerpt and a giveaway, here! This book tells the story of a Miss Margaret Lacey, a woman determined to obtain a governess position to keep her uncle out of debtor’s prison. My review: I was provided a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest and fair review.
Are these two lost souls finally ready to be schooled in the art of love? What neither of them could have expected from this arrangement, however, is an attraction that burns stronger than ever. Penniless but not without pride, Meg convinces the vexingly handsome Will to hire her for the job. A tragic accident robbed her of everything, and now, at age twenty-three, her marital prospects are slim to none. But she bowed out of the engagement―and, since then, has never been the same. Miss Margaret Lacey is brainy, beautiful, and, once upon a time, Will’s betrothed. Hiring a governess should solve some of Will’s problems…but when he meets the candidate in question, he finds himself in an entirely new predicament. Not only has he broken ties with his longtime mistress, his mother has publicly announced her wish for him to marry a suitable young lady―if only to help him raise the twins left in his care.
William Ryder, Earl of Castleton, is at the end of his noble rope. This in no way affected my opinion of the book, or the content of my review.
