About this listen

An out-of-work governess tries to start a school in the village.

Deborah Hollingsworth, grand-daughter of a baron, has come down in the world, reduced to acting as unpaid governess for her relations. When even that option closes, what is she to do? She has a secret plan, but until she can achieve her heart’s desire, she’ll start a modest village school to make ends meet, and bring a little happiness to the local children. What she doesn’t expect is to find a lonely young man even more in need of a little happiness.

David Exton is a widower, still mourning the death of his wife. He lives a twilight existence, barely leaving his home on the outskirts of the village. The villagers have long learnt that he wants to be left alone, but Deborah is not a woman to take no for an answer. He’s just the man to fulfil all her ambitions, so she begins a campaign to draw the recluse back into the sunlight. But sometimes the sunshine reveals secrets best left buried.

This is a complete story with a happy ever after. Book five of a six book series. A traditional Regency romance, drawing room rather than bedroom.

Good

I like all of Mary Kingswood's books. The latest two releases haven't been as enthralling for me as all her previous ones, but they are still good—and much better than most of the books in this genre. Plus they always include a mystery or two. Please keep these clean stories coming.
