Book excerpt: Scandal brews and sparks fly when an earl asks a governess for help in this sexy regency romance. Rumors fly that Gareth Morant, Earl of Standon, is to be wed.

He educates the buttoned-up Miss Jessica Gifford in the courtesan’s arts. But Gareth hasn’t bargained on such an ardent, clever pupil—or on his passionate response to her! He wanted to cause a stir—it seems they are about to brew a scandal!
