description: Penny had not been lucky in love. Her engagement had ended in disillusionment. As if that weren’t enough, what she had thought was a budding romance between herself and the charming and handsome Charles, had turned out on his side to be nothing but a way to pass an idle week, as he considered that she was a Penny Plain, not pretty enough for anything more than a few days’ casual amusement. So she decided to make a complete new start, taking a position as governess to four children on a remote sheep station far back in the Southern Alps. There she found peace and healing and a place as a beloved member of the family — until, to her horror, the duplicitous Charles himself turned up, settled in permanently, and shattered her dearly purchased peace of mind! Could she bear to stay, even with the family and mountains she had grown to love, so long as it meant enduring the company of a man who despised her?
