She is a remarkable young lady. She would do anything to avoid a forced marriage. Her mother wants to save her. She has to escape, even if it would be the last time they met…
Miss Louisa Fenwick is the daughter of a merchant and seamstress. Four years ago her father filed for bankruptcy after several poor business decisions. Things took a turn for the worse when her father began drinking heavily which led to his untimely death. Louisa and her mother are taken in by her father’s younger brother Edmund. Louisa has grown into a beautiful young woman and is of marriageable age. Unbeknown to Louisa, Edmund plans to marry her off to his business partner—a repugnant gentleman twice her age. After finding out about Edmund’s plan, Louisa’s mother arranges for her to escape. With the help of her mother’s friend, Louisa is employed as a governess for the son of the Duke of Barnshire.
Alastair Barnes, the Duke of Barnshire, has vowed never to remarry. His marriage to Cordelia was out of obligation to his late brother. Sadly, Cordelia passed away eight years ago after giving birth to their son Carter. Alastair has become a recluse and has a passion for breaking in horses. But everything changes when he meets Louisa and he feels a strong connection with his son’s new governess.
Will a sudden tragedy bring Alastair and Louisa closer or will it tear them apart?
*If you like powerful Dukes, loving Ladies, and a marvelous depiction of the majestic Regency and Victorian era, then Louisa, The Scarred Governess is the novel for you.
