The illegitimate daughter of the Prince Regent might be expected to pursue various dubious professions—actress, artist's model, or even courtesan. Victoria Knight, however, has become a governess. It's a respectable choice, until she travels to Scotland to meet her new charges. The younger brothers of Nicholas Kendrick, Earl of Arnprior, aren't children at all. They're brawny, wild Highland men. As for the Earl, he's handsome, guarded, and far too compelling . . . especially for a woman with a dark secret.
Nick's unmarriageable brothers require civilizing instruction, while Nick needs a
sensible wife. Miss Knight seems to fit the bill on both counts. But he soon discovers there is more to Victoria than he thought. It's not just her notorious origins, or the danger that's followed her all the way to Scotland. It's the fiery loyalty beneath that sedate façade. The real Victoria, is the woman Nick is starting to desire desperately. And what an earl wants, he'll use every seductive means to get . . .

The strong third installment in the Improper Princesses series is a thoroughly satisfying Regency romance. When prim-and-proper Victoria Knight’s former employer dies while attempting to assault her, she decides to leave town until she’s sure she won’t be convicted of killing him. She flees to Scotland, where she accepts a position as governess for the siblings of the noble Nicholas Kendrick, Earl of Arnprior. Nicholas knows Victoria is hiding something, but he needs her calming demeanor to get his siblings—ages 12 to 25—under control. His household is in disarray after his surly, argumentative grandfather, Angus, was left in charge while Nick was fighting in the war against Napoleon. Nick has suffered great losses, and he has no tolerance for dishonesty. Victoria’s family has sworn her to secrecy in order to protect her, but the family of the deceased is out for revenge, and Victoria knows it’s only a matter of time before her secret is revealed. Kelly has infused this perfectly paced, detailed sequel with several juicy secrets, a lot of riffraff, and some danger, making it a well-balanced addition to the series.
