Lady Rose Fernside has lost all that a carriage accident could take from her: her parents, her fortune, and even her name. Deprived of her title, she becomes Miss Bennett and accepts a position as governess to the unruly son of a grieving duke. Determined never again to place her heart at another’s mercy, she guards her secrets closely. Yet the boy’s watchful father sees far more than she ever intended to reveal…
