Miss Cordelia Adams doesn't need to work, not really. Her parents' death left her bereft, but comfortable. However, as a confirmed spinster, she's afraid that if she doesn't find something meaningful with which to occupy her days, she'll go mad. When she responds to an advertisement for employment as a governess to a marquess's daughter, she undertakes the long travel to Cornwall with a hopeful spirit.
Only, between a thrown wheel that leaves her unconscious, an overbearing housekeeper, and a handsome marquess who appears to hate his daughter, apprehension soon begins to seem the more intelligent choice. And then there's the midnight wailing...
Damien Huntington has a secret, and he's determined to keep it from the alluring governess. After all, he's made something of a habit out of keeping secrets. Besides, if he wants to hate his daughter, that's his business. Providing her with a home is all he owes the young girl, and only because he's made a bargain to do so.
But as Cordelia works her way into his life, he finds his edges softening. Only, he cannot have her. She deserves his respect, but marriage is impossible for two very good reasons. So, when sparks begin to fly in this story filled with romance and misadventure, what can he do but call her employment terminated after a Christmas they all wish could last forever?
Will Fate that denied them her favor suddenly reverses course and allow true love to conquer all?
You don't have to have money and lands to have a noble heart, as these stories of historical romance will prove. Find love in unexpected places and situations across time with the Noble Hearts series.
