Yes, there are some spelling issues, but they should not overshadow a most entertaining romance.Georgeanne is a feisty and unique character, bright, warm and forthright. Her excellent family history and impeccable upbringing will not keep her once she finds herself alone and impoverished. She has two unsuccessful positions behind her and no reference. The agency sends her as a governess to a supposedly impossible child. As everyone else has failed, her lack of experience may be overlooked.Lord Raynor has lost his natural joie de vivre under the heavy burden of responsibility for the family estates and his place in politics. His older brother died in an accident with his wife, leaving Marianne in his care. He has no experience with children and no idea how to reach out to her. Marianne has taken to screaming tantrums and the entire household is in disarray.Georgeanne manages to convince Lord Raynor to give her one month to prove her worth. Her methods are unusual, but she soon finds her way into the little girl's heart and Marianne responds to Georgie's tender care.The story does not have terrible villains or deathly intrigue. It does have amusing dialogue and interesting characters - from the wonderfully charming Lord Townsend to the spiteful and scheming Lady Olivia. Georgeanne may have lost her position in society due to her lack of funds, but Lord Raynor'a aunt instantly sees that they are perfect for each other and determines to subtly help them to discover that for themselves.
