“How about friendship for an hour? Give me one hour each afternoon, Miss Lioni. One hour to earn your friendship for another day. You can always go back to hating me tomorrow.”
A governess tangled in secrets…
At Northam Hall, Sofia Lioni has only one goal—blackmail the Duke of Northam.
Shoving her decency aside, she secures a position as governess to the Northams’ children, determined to remain solitary and inconspicuous. Instead, she finds herself charmed by her unconventional employers and tempted by a sense of security she thought lost to her forever.
At the heart of her unwelcome attachment is the duke’s valet. Undeterred by her prickly demeanour, Christopher meets every glare with a grin, coaxing her trust with patience and humour. Despite her body’s unnerving frisson of desire every time Christopher is near, Sofia tries to maintain her distance.
A valet determined to unravel her…
Living comfortably as valet to his oldest friend, Christopher Keene’s days are predictable but fulfilling. When the new governess arrives, half-starved and wholly skittish, every nerve in his body sparks to life. After a catastrophic introduction—complete with a spontaneous marriage proposal—Christopher endeavours to prove himself steadfast and invaluable, winning her love one day at a time.
Even as their bristling banter gives way to sensual passion, Christopher knows that Sofia withholds as much of herself as she shares.
When Sofia’s past comes to threaten their present, will Christopher have one more day, or will it cost them everything?
