“So tell me, Miss Webster, why should I employ you?”
The wintry Marcus Scarcliffe, the Duke of Shawdale, needs a governess.
The penniless Miss Charlotte Webster needs employment.
What could be simpler?
Yet when long-ago love, a wager, a wandering uncle and Christmas are involved… Nothing is simple.
A heart-warming short novella, inspired by Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and set in the romantic scenery of the English Lake District, Charlotte must remind the duke of his past, show him the present and let the future unfold…
With elegant balls, a Lakeland wedding and a duke who has forgotten the meaning of love, the vocation of governess has never been such a festive adventure.
Contains sensual scenes.
This story was previously available as part of the Christmas in Cumbria anthology but now released standalone with additional content and epilogue.
