A Family for the Widowed Governess Reviews

3.5
“Lady Marguerite is a very independent and headstrong lady, so when she meets Lord Compton things heat up. Marguerite ends up working as his governess as she needs the money to protect herself from a blackmailer, so she has no choice but to accept even if she does not agree with Lord Compton's methods of taking care of the girls. It was a very sweet story, but there have also been plenty of hot, steamy moments. The writing was good and brought the characters to life. I also adored the little girls, which is always a hard one to pull off.”

About Ann Lethbridge

Ann Lethbridge majored in history and business. She always loved the glamorous, if rather risky, Georgians and in particular the Regency era as drawn by Georgette Heyer. It was that love that prompted her to write her first Regency novel in 2000. She found she enjoyed it so much she just couldn't stop! Ann gave up a career in university administration to focus on her first love, writing novels and lives in Canada with her family. Visit her website at: www.annlethbridge.com
