About this item

The first of a brand new series by the author of Sons of the Marquess. When Mr Edmund Winterton of Woodside dies, his daughters find themselves penniless and homeless. What can they do? Unless they wish to live on charity, they will have to find genteel employment for themselves. Annabelle becomes governess to the daughters of the recently bereaved Earl of Brackenwood. She has no idea how to teach, but her pupils can learn all they need from books, so how difficult can it be? She'll need all her ingenuity to cope with the rebelliousness of her charges, and the unwanted attentions of their father. But when her past returns to haunt her, she has to make a difficult decision. Allan is slowly getting used to life as a widower, but his mother is determined that he must marry again and produce an heir.



About the Author

Mary Kingswood

I live in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland with my husband. I like chocolate, whisky, my Kindle, massed pipe bands, long leisurely lunches, chocolate, going places in my campervan, eating pizza in Italy, summer nights that never get dark, wood fires in winter, chocolate, the view from the study window looking out over the Moray Firth and the Black Isle to the mountains beyond. And chocolate. I dislike driving on motorways, cooking, shopping, hospitals. The lovely lady in my avatar is Archduchess Clementina of Austria (1798-1881) , Princess of Salerno, painted around 1839. NOTE: I read Regency romances as well as write them, and I review them all on my website, or you can find them right here on on my real-name account at
