The Rules of Employment for The Distinguished Academy of Governesses:
Always remember your station. Be sure to maintain a disciplined
schoolroom. And never, ever become too familiar with the master of the
house...
Lady Charlotte Dalrumple is known as England's most proper governess, a
woman who has never taken a misstep socially--or romantically. On the
surface, she seems perfectly suited to accept the challenge of reforming
Lord Wynter Ruskin, sadly uncivilized by his travels abroad.
But Wynter has no desire to be taught manners. He glimpsed an
uninhibited beauty hiding beneath Charlotte's prim exterior, and he'd
much rather spend his days--and nights--instructing her in the pleasures
of the body and the passions of the heart. But before they can love both
must also master the Rules of Surrender.
