Summary
Marigold Devlin hadnāt planned on spending more than one year as a governess. Much as she loves the Chambers children, sheās looking forward to her own marriage and familyāuntil the children are tragically orphaned.
By the time her letters catch up to the girlsā globetrotting uncle, her contract is long expired, and her impatient fiancĆ© has broken their engagement. She tries to hide her disappointment behind cool, even frosty respect for her new employer, when he finally arrives. But his haunted eyes thaw her heart a few cautious degrees. And she burns with guilt for her uncharitable thoughts.
Gordon Chambers doesnāt plan to stay in Cape May long enough for any painful memories to take holdāuntil he realizes thereās a thriving boat business to sell, two charming nieces who tug at his heart, and a flame-haired governess who seems determined to go above and beyond for everyone except herself.
As Gordon works through an ever-shifting list of priorities, Marigold sparks a tender longing for something more than his solitary existence. But when he learns someone has once again betrayed his trust, the pain threatens to send him back into shadows too dark for love to reach.
