Governesses Trilogy Series by Elizabeth Bailey

Governess Prudence Hursley expected to see little of her new employer, Mr Julius Rookham. However, she found herself continually thrown into his path, and the more she got to know him, the more she found herself wishing for the impossible!

Lord Eden Jarrow is enough to test the steadiest of hearts! Can one with such a shadowed past be capable of love? When governess Nell is drawn into a desperate battle alongside Eden to save his young daughter from an unexpected, unknown danger, she is set to find out...

A whirlwind marriage to a dashing lord or being the daughter of aristocratic parents are dreams that governess Kitty Merrick should not entertain. Then Claud, Viscount Devenick, briefly mistakes her for his cousin and thus uncovers a scandalous family secret. Suddenly Kitty has her wishes granted and she and Claud are married. But Kitty soon realizes all she truly wants is his love--the one thing she cannot ask of him...
