When the past and present collide, there are always consequences... Aurelia Beswick's life hangs by a thread. Penniless and alone, she grasps at her last hope: a position as a governess far from London. Little does she know that fate has a cruel twist in store. Her new employer is none other than Lord Ryland-a man from her past she never expected to see again. Luckily, he doesn't seem to remember her. Determined to keep her position, Aurelia finds herself walking a precarious line, keeping her identity a secret while every interaction with Lord Ryland seems to draw them closer together. At the heart of this delicate balance is Lord Ryland's son, a sweet boy who brings Aurelia and Lord Ryland together with their mutual love for him. But as bonds strengthen and walls crumble, Aurelia must face an impossible choice: continue her charade or risk losing everything she's fought so hard to gain. Book two in the Hearts of Harewood series, A Proper Governess is a sweet and clean Regency romance that proves that even in the most proper of societies, the heart cannot be governed.
