A troubled Scotsman. A determined spinster. And a kidnapping that forces them to confront the past they thought they’d left behind.
When Mungo Fraser’s young niece is kidnapped, his estranged brother unexpectedly arrives in London, reigniting family ties that Mungo thought were long severed.
With time running out, they must work together to rescue her. Enter Eliza Downing, the new governess at the Nightingale household, who refuses to be ignored.
Fierce, unyielding, and independent, Eliza challenges Mungo in ways no one ever has.
The undeniable tension between them is thick—yet when Eliza too becomes involved, Mungo realizes that what lies between them is far more than he could have ever anticipated.
After the death of her parents, Eliza was determined not to fall into genteel poverty. Raised as a lady, she decided to forge her own path as a teacher.
Everything is going to plan until she entered the Nightingale household.
There, she faces a formidable Scotsman she refuses to acknowledge any feelings for—and a kidnapping that will alter the course of her life.
