Book Description
Sheridan Bromleigh makes a journey from America to England as a paid escort to one of her students, heiress Charise Lancaster. But she encounters a problem right before she docks - Charise has run away with another man aboard the ship. Charise was supposed to be handed over to her fiancé, Lord Burleton, and Sheridan is mortified of what could happen next.
It turns out Lord Burleton died the night before they docked in England, in an accident. Stephen Westmoreland, Earl of Langford, came to inform Lord Burleton's fiancée of his accidental death. As Sheridan steps off, Stephen addresses Lord Burleton's sudden death to her, believing she is Charise Lancaster. Before Sheridan could clear up the misunderstanding, she is hit by a precariously swinging net of crates!
Stephen takes her back to his house to recuperate, only to find out when she wakes up that she has no memory of her past. As Sheridan tries to discover who she is, she slowly develops a love for the Earl of Langford, but keeps it to herself when she thinks the feeling is not reciprocated, not knowing Stephen is slowly developing a love for her, as well.
