My Brown-Eyed Earl

A bachelor nobleman gets a second chance with his former betrothed when he meets the new governess in this Regency romance series opener. "Heart, humor, and a hot hero. Everything I look for in a great romance novel!" —Valerie Bowman William Ryder, Earl of Castleton, is at the end of his noble rope. Not only has he broken ties with his longtime mistress, but his mother has also publicly announced her wish for him to marry a suitable young lady—if only to help him raise the young twins in his care. Hiring a governess should solve some of Will's problems . . . but when he meets the candidate in question, he finds himself in an entirely new predicament. Miss Margaret Lacey is brainy, beautiful, and, once upon a time, Will's betrothed. But she bowed out of the engagement—and, since then, has never been the same. A tragic accident robbed her of everything, and now, at age twenty-three, her marital prospects are slim to none. Penniless but not without pride, Meg convinces the vexingly handsome Will to hire her for the job. What neither of them could have expected from this arrangement, however, is an attraction that burns stronger than ever. Are these two lost souls finally ready to be schooled in the art of love?
