"A new Regency romp of a series, about governess who believes in cultivating joy in her charges, clashes with the children's uncle who hired her, only to find herself falling in love. When the flighty older sister of former naval captain, Henry Kincaid, decides on a whim to accompany her explorer husband on an expedition to Egypt, he finds himself unwittingly left in the lurch with her three unruly children and her giant, mad dog. With no clue how to manage the little rascals, a busy career at the Admiralty that requires all of his attention, and no idea when his sister is coming back, Harry has to hire an emergency governess to ensure that everything in his ordered house continues to run shipshape. In desperation, he goes to Miss Prentice's School for Girls prepared to pay whatever it takes to get a governess quick sharp to bring order to the chaos. Thanks to her miserable, strict upbringing, fledgling governess Georgina Rowe does not subscribe to the ethos that children should be seen and not heard. Shebelieves childhood should be everything that hers wasn't, filled with laughter, adventure, and discovery. Thankfully, the three Pendleton children she has been tasked with looking after are already delightfully bohemian and instantly embrace her unconventional educational ethos. Their staid, stickler-for-the-rules uncle, however, is another matter entirely. Georgina and Henry continue to butt heads over their differences, but over time it seems that in this case, their attraction is undeniable, and all is indeed fair in love and war"--… (más)

This book was an entertaining historical romance. Georgie Rowe is a governess. Well, she would be if someone would hire her. She has had 33 unsuccessful interviews so far. Her outspokenness has been her downfall.

Harry Kincaid is a busy naval officer. He is busy working for the admiralty as a problem solver. One of his biggest problems is getting the HMS Boadicea ready for sailing but there are construction delays after construction delays.

Then Harry's sister decides to go with her husband to look for the source of the Nile and leave her three mischievous children and their monster dog in Harry's care. He loves his nephew and nieces, but they are too much for a busy man to deal with. He hires Georgie out of desperation to be their temporary governess until their parents return.

Harry has been in love before, and it almost cost him his career. He doesn't need to be attracted to this feisty governess who doesn't follow his precisely laid down schedule. And Georgie doesn't need to fall in love with a rigid military man who seems so like the stepfather who made her mother's life and her own life so miserable.

These two mismatched souls fall in love. But can they ever be together?

Fun romance with well-developed characters. ( )
