description: TOO LOVELY TO BE A GOVERNESS...
  
  Young Leonie de Montbarey left Lord Linton's house in seeming disgrace, for the flame-haired girl's beauty had aroused the jealously of the Viscountess and the uninvited passions of the lord's son and heir. Then the impeccably mannered and arrogant Jeremy Deveril tried to find her employment -- only to discover how unwanted a governess could be when she was not only beautiful, but more versed in scholarship than in ladylike arts.
  
  Difficulties still shadowed the lovely Leonie, even when help arrived. For the love-sick Robert Linton still pursued her, the Viscountess still threatened to ruin her, and the baffling, aloof, and oh-so-handsome gentleman Jeremy Deveril still troubled -- and taunted -- her hungry heart.
