Publisher Description

Bestselling author Christina Dodd brings you her most boldly romantic adventure in her most popular historical series, the Governess Brides...

Lovely Victoria Cardiff is very prim, very strict, very sure that England is the only civilized place in the world...

She's about to find out she's right. Only Victoria knows the truth about dashing, dissolute, dangerous Saber Lawrence--that he is a renegade prince plotting to seize control of his country. To ensure her silence, Saber kidnaps Victoria and carries her away to his castle deep in the woods.

There they hide the truth about their past: a glittering ball, angry words, a passionate kiss. He vows to vanquish her reserve ... but soon finds an English governess is not so easily seduced ...

"You're beautiful," Raul told her. "That you know." "I'm passable," Victoria corrected, "and I've reached the age of being a spinster." "You've reached the age where you're no longer a twit. You're a woman, and a damned fine looking one. A man, if he were so inclined, could take you to the Mediterranean pirates and sell you for a tidy sum. I suppose you're still a virgin?" Her face flamed. "Mr. ... Lawrence!" "So you are. Yes, a tidy sum. Or I could keep you here as my plaything, tame you myself." "I am not a wildcat!" The place where he held her, his hands to her arms, grew hot, as if his touch was causing friction. "How would you know? You just admitted you're a virgin." "I most certainly did not!" "So you're not a virgin?" He grinned as he watched her struggle with the answer. Finally she settled on, "Whether I am or not is not your business." "My dear Miss Cardiff, I would like to make it my business."
