The
dark-eyed, raven-haired governess haunts Mr. Isaac Pierce's waking and sleeping
dreams. And she's right next door. But the prim, shy young woman has rebuffed
his advances, and he must respect her choice. He has tried to forget her. Yet
he can't. He aches to possess her.
One glance
at the tall, gorgeous merchant prince and all Miss Abigail Francis'
self-control melts away. The same ironclad control over her emotions and
expectations had seen her through years filled with deprivation,
disappointments and loss.
A domestic
crisis brings them into close, daily contact and she begins to see the man
behind the handsome face and, for the first time, her heart is touched by a
man. Now she knows what it is to crave a man as much as she craves air to
breathe.
After a
life directed by prudence, responsibility and duty, Abigail finds herself
tempted to be indiscreet. Just once. And no one would ever know or be hurt. But
she'd best be careful. Her livelihood and that of those she loves depend on her
stern discipline and spotless reputation.
But Abigail
doesn't realize that the repercussions of her uncharacteristic recklessness
might just prove dangerous in a way she least suspects. Who protects the
protector?
