The society dictates that a governess should be modest, quiet, and keep to herself. She must never contradict her employer, and, above all, she must not attract the attention of any male in the household. However, Michael Severson does not see Isabel Halloran as a governess - he sees her as a woman, one whose lush curves cannot be hidden behind a dowdy gown, and whose efforts at hiding her sparkling intelligence are betrayed by her wit.
Years before, Michael had left Regency England, falsely accused of a crime. Now, he is back, dedicated to seeking retribution - but not to taking a bride. But when his scandalous actions compromise Isabel's reputation, he does the unthinkable and offers her his hand - a marriage in name only.
Although his bride's passions are untried, Isabel's sensuality clearly matches his own. And with each day and night that passes, Michael becomes determined that every kiss, every caress, will be made with one goal: to seduce his proper wife into tender submission.
Michael had always been a man of action, and his return to Regency England was no exception. He had left under a cloud of suspicion, but now he was back, determined to clear his name and reclaim what was rightfully his. However, his plans took an unexpected turn when he encountered Isabel Halloran, the governess in the household of his former associates.
At first, Michael saw Isabel as nothing more than a means to an end - a way to get closer to those who had wronged him. But as he spent more time with her, he found himself irresistibly drawn to her quiet strength, her unwavering intelligence, and the alluring curves that she tried so hard to hide.
Isabel, on the other hand, was a woman trapped by the expectations of society. She knew that as a governess, she was expected to be modest, demure, and completely subservient to her employer. But Michael's gaze, hot and intense, made it clear that he saw her as so much more than just a governess.
When Michael's actions compromised Isabel's reputation, he knew he had to act. In a daring move, he offered her the only thing he could - a marriage in name only. But as they spent more time together, the lines between them began to blur. Isabel's passions, long suppressed, began to stir, and Michael found himself determined to seduce his proper wife into a tender submission.
The days and nights that followed were filled with a growing intimacy, as Michael and Isabel explored the depths of their newfound connection. With each kiss, each caress, Michael's resolve hardened, his determination to claim Isabel as his own becoming more and more unshakable.
