The Governess Who Stole the Earl's Heart

A Historical Regency Romance Novel

Orphaned and alone, Isobel Leighton has survived years carrying the weight of a mother she barely remembers and a father imprisoned for debts. When he dies, he leaves her one chilling command: Stay away from Blackmoor Hall. However, with no family, and a desperate need for work, she has no choice but to accept a position at the very estate he warned her against...

Theodore Ashcombe, Earl of Blackmoor, is exhausted by responsibility and haunted by the past. Governing his estate, managing his mischief-making younger sisters, and fending off a scheming uncle leaves little room for hope—until Isobel arrives. Her poise unsettles him, while also drawing him in, awakening feelings he cannot ignore…

Together, Isobel and Theodore must navigate the shadowed halls of Blackmoor Hall, where hidden letters, and unexplained accidents, threaten everything they hold dear. Can they uncover the secrets of the past before it destroys them both?
