Scandalous secrets and dangerous lies must be overcome if true love is to be won. He never believed in love at first sight, but she changed all that from the moment they met. Her incredible beauty, her intelligence, her sweetness – she was perfection in his eyes, claiming his heart from the start.
Bachelor Edmund Adair, Marquess of Everdeane, is the guardian of a young girl he loves above all else. To ensure her future, he reluctantly searches in vain for a suitable stepmother for her among the ladies of the ton. Meanwhile, his parents’ favourite pursues him. He can’t stand her, but she won’t take no for an answer. Then, he hires a governess who instantly bonds with his ward—and steals his heart. Caught in a web of lies and secrets not of his making but which threaten both him and the girl, his love for the governess seems an impossible dream.
Baron’s daughter Emma Cavendish must leave her old life behind and lie about her past to gain employment as governess to the young ward of the Marquess of Everdeane. Quickly bonding with her charge, she’s clueless about the tragic yet scandalous secret behind the child’s origins. Drawn inexorably to her handsome employer, Emma slowly falls for him but knows he’s soon to be betrothed to a beautiful lady of the ton. Heartbroken, she’s resigned to leaving the two people she loves behind. But first, she’ll tell the Marquess the truth about her past. But he has truths to deliver too, shocking truths that will have life-changing effects on all their futures.
