Love Unbeknownst

Margaret Thorne had spent most of her life running; running from her abusive, molesting father; running from the guilt of leaving her sister behind. And one day, she simply runs. As far as she can, as fast as she can, leaving behind the life she had dreaded and running towards... what? A lonely old woman, cast out of society for her odd ways of living, and who eventually becomes the only mother Margaret had ever known?
The woman raises here well, and save the scar on her cheek, she is handsome. In her later years she finds work as a housemaid and sitter in a town two hours north, and an accidental encounter with a rich man's young, motherless daughters leads her to becoming their governess. Margaret herself has never met their father, the esteemed Mr. James Morganstern, and rumors say his is an ill-tempered man, bitter because of his beautiful wife's death some years ago.
Can Margaret teach James to turned his hard-heart into a loving one? Will she show him that not all of life is filled with hatred and scorn? With the help of the reluctant staff, and a very curious ghost, that daring deed is not at all unlikely.
