when Marcus came up behind her. Read more...
SummaryWhen Amanda Barclay receives a magic token as a gift from a
stranger, she is more than skeptical about whether this
gold coin can change her life. But then the very man who
captured her heart years ago suddenly appears. Is it
destiny or cruel fate? Does he even remember her?
Circumstances obligate her to accept the position he offers
as governess, but how can she endure being near a man so
beyond her reach?
Marcus Hamilton, Duke of Yarborough, is a man burdened by
family and political responsibilities. He does not have the
time nor the inclination to dally with women beneath his
station. But a chance meeting throws him together with
Mandy, the engaging young sprite from his past, causing him
to reevaluate his beliefs. For once in his life, the call
of love beckons far stronger than the duties and
obligations of his position.
