Lord Charles Beaumont is shocked that the favor he promised his closest friend involves helping governess Edith Knolton. Edith is the bane of his existence, causing him more embarrassment than any diplomat can tolerate. But a vow is a vow, so he reluctantly puts himself in harm's way.
Edith is a finishing governess whose perfect record of settling even the most intransigent girls lets her command exorbitant fees. But that record is now in danger. It will take a miracle to get this very spoiled charge to the altar without scandal. And Charles is no miracle. His very presence turns her into a stuttering, clumsy oaf. But she is desperate enough to try anything, even working with someone who revives dreams she long ago abandoned...
