A Governess Should Never... Tempt a Prizefighter (The Governess Chronicles Book 1)

'A story so beautiful and joyful, that I just want to read it over again... wonderfully written, with characters to love, root for, and sigh over.' ★★★★★ & A Best of Year - Roses are Blue, Romantic Fiction Reviews. "So tell me, Miss Griffin, why should I employ you as governess?" A question to rouse fear within the breast of any prospective governess but for Matilda, a lady without references, appropriate brown clothing or any experience with children whatsoever, doubly so. But alone in the world except for a brutish guardian and a malodorous betrothed, Matilda must seek her own future, even if that means employment in the household of a rugged ex-prizefighter with sizeable muscles and doubtless minuscule intellect. "Please continue to enlighten me, Miss Griffin." Mr Seth Hawkins, owner of famed Boxing Academy, has reached the point of desperation in his search for a governess. Yet with no other suitable candidates, could this yellow-clad, bespectacled female who seemed to think him a witless dolt with calloused knuckles and no books, teach his daughter the ways of a lady? The Lady and the Prizefighter. One should never judge a man by his well-defined muscles or a lady by her yellow-silk slippers, for beneath both façades lay shared dreams, yearning hearts and a taste for adventure. With scandalous kisses in midnight carriages, tavern jaunts, whifflers, nobblers and dressing as a nefarious footpad on the prowl, the vocation of governess has never been so exciting...
