A governess with a secret
...meets this ready-made family!
Part of The Widows of Westram: Lady Marguerite Saxby is being blackmailed! Desperate for money, she accepts Jack Vincent, Earl Compton’s offer to become the temporary governess to his three motherless daughters. There’s so much she can’t tell her new employer. Only, she’s not expecting the all-consuming attraction that makes living under Jack’s roof a constant battle between her head and her heart!
In her youth, award-winning author ANN LETHBRIDGE reimagined the Regency romances she read—and now she loves writing her own. Now living in Canada, Ann visits Britain every year, where family members understand—or so they say—her need to poke around every antiquity within a hundred miles. Learn more about Ann or contact her at annlethbridge.com. She loves hearing from readers.

This story is about three women who became friends
and supported each other through thick and thin.
I would like to dedicate this book
to great friends everywhere.
These are people who make each day
feel a little brighter and who are there for you
in times of need as well as times of celebration.
Friends are like treasure.
Hoard every one of them.
