Captain Silas Morley, decorated veteran and reluctant heir, faces a challenge greater than any battlefield he's fought: he must secure a wife, produce an heir, and somehow tame the wild, tree-climbing spirit of his nine-year-old ward, Amelia, the secret daughter of his late brother.
Hoping to give Amelia the guidance she needs and to quiet the gossip surrounding her questionable birth, he places a newspaper advertisement for a governess.
Effie Hawthorne answers.
Brilliant, resourceful, and on the run from a brutal nobleman who still hunts her, she arrives at Morley Hall with secrets to protect and a plan to escape again. But what begins as a calculated arrangement of teaching a young lady manners and rebellion in equal measure quickly ignites into something far more dangerous when Effie offers to teach the war-hardened captain something he has never mastered...
The art of seduction.
