Not Just a Governess

by Carole Mortimer

Darkly delicious Lord Adam Hawthorne doesn't care a whit for society--especially the tedium of finding a wife. So taking on a new governess for his young daughter shouldn't shake his steely disposition! Except Mrs. Elena Leighton, an enigmatic widow, is a most intriguing addition to the household. What are those ladylike airs and graces beneath her dowdy exterior? Despite great impropriety, Lord Hawthorne is compelled to discover the real Elena--no matter what secrets are unveiled along the way.
