[Sisters of Woodside Mysteries 01] • The Governess

A traditional Regency romance, drawing room rather than bedroom.

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. He is equally

determined that he won’t, although the new governess is just the sort of woman

he could fall in love with. But when a face from long ago reappears and stirs

up suspicion, he has to consider the possibility that his wife’s death was not

natural. What is worse, he himself is the obvious suspect. If he can’t prove

his innocence, he may lose everything - his home, his new love and even his

life.
