Devil Within

by Catherine George

Flying down to Rio It wasn't just the title of an old movie for Claudia March, but something actually happening--to her! She'd been accepted for the position of governess to a mining engineer's daughter in Brazil, and no one could have been more excited to find herself on that transatlantic flight. Claudia expected problems with the job, of course, and those she certainly encountered. But not with her charge. Becky was a darling. It was her father, the difficult and sarcastic Saul Treharne, who turned out to be impossible to manage! Mills & Boon Why was Saul Treharne so cold and hostile against her? Claudia wondered ruefully. After all, he had needed a governess for his little girl, it was not everyone who would be willing to go off to the wilds of Brazil for the purpose, and even Saul must admit that Claudia was doing a good job. So why did he absolutely refuse to believe anything good of her? Why couldn’t he see that all women were not as selfish and unprincipled as his ex-wife?
