Book Description
After the loss of his wife, Lord Grantham Mackenzie resolves to remain single forever. Father to two young boys, he hires a governess to ensure their care and education. Despite his wish to not remarry, his feelings for his sons’ tutor grows over time. However, Grantham fears exposing how he feels could drive her away. When they head to his family estate in the country, his mother invites a woman in hopes of convincing Grantham to marry.
Governess, Octavia Smith, has three loves, her two young charges and their father, the handsome Lord Mackenzie. Wishing to remain in the lad’s life as long as possible, she must hide the attraction she feels toward their father and risk being discharged. When the Lord entertains a wealthy young heiress at his country estate, Octavia must decide if she can remain in his employ and watch him marry another woman.
Will they come to term with the strength of their love, or will they allow social dictates to dash their dreams forever?
