An arrogant earl looking for the perfect wife; a strong-minded governess determined to transform him into the perfect man—who will win?
Anthony Elliot, Earl of Greyley, prides himself on absolute order. But inheriting five unruly wards turns his stately manor upside down, with ink-stained desks and frogs in his bedchamber linens. How can one unbending bachelor survive mutiny in his nursery?
Desperate for peace, he hires Anna Thraxton, London's best governess. Yet the spirited beauty refuses his rigid schedules, trading pranks with the children and meeting the arrogant earl glare for glare.
Neither competitor is willing to yield an inch. Which iron will surrenders first when furious sparring sparks an undeniable attraction?
