The Governess Wears Scarlet

A passion like theirs won't stay secret for long

Haunted by a terrible tragedy, Viscount Jason Steele roams the streets of London as a masked vigilante. One starlit night, he rescues a veiled young woman . . . and she unleashes a fiery passion he'd thought long dead. Though they explore each other's bodies, they must keep their faces hidden, for an illicit affair could have dangerous consequences for them both . . .

In the harsh light of day, Jason's primary concern is hiring a governess to care for his two young nephews. He has no idea that Abigail West is the tantalizing woman he meets under the cover of darkness each night. But when they discover a kidnapping plot that could plunge them all into mortal danger, Jason and Abigail will be forced to reveal themselves . . . and lay bare their incredible, explosive attraction for all the world to see.
