Tansy, left penniless by her late father, has been putting herself out as a governess to other people’s brats for two years when she is somehow caught up in playing chaperone to a distant cousin, the sister of a duke, no less. Ashley Benedict, Duke of Avonall, is a man beleaguered. His grandmother is a terror, his sister a lovely but none-too-bright chit, his valet a superstitious twit, and his aunt Lucinda is ... well, odd.

Ratings and reviews

Interesting plot. But two main characters are so overdrawn as to make it unlikely I will continue the series. This was especially true for Ashley. I found myself increasingly impatient with him...what a spoiled brat...at 35! Perhaps I would have been less irrtated if there were some explanation given for his emotional age being stuck at 2 years old.

I wanted to like this a lot. The author seems intelligent and brings a sass to the main female character, the likes of which I'd like to see more novels do. However, the sentence structure is too long for my liking. The sentences give such insight and thought about an item, place, or person that I often forget what I'm reading about. This would not be such an annoying habit if it only existed for one character but as it is, the author speaks like this for all characters... at least up until the point at which I read. I'm putting this book back.

it's great for a free book. other reviewer have said about how distracting the long sentence structures are, and the whole book i kept thinking 'oh so true' :) some could be cut into more efficient sentence, but all in all i still finished the book and entertained. i'm looking forward to read other stories from the author.
