Great story with reunited childhood loves but with obstacles in the way, lost letters, family that means well but not, a widow in need of money that will stop at nothing to gain a Duke, broken hearts and one rogue rake that has his flings thrown in his face by the one girl he destroyed when she was 15, but the biggest obstacle is their love that they still have for each other while she hides hers, he try's to smash it because he won't ever get married or have children (fears his father engraved into Max's head)
They fell in love when she was 15 and he 16, but tragically something happen and his father split them apart in more way then one. Now Abby is 29 almost 30 a spinster and is a unpaid servent to her much older siblings (like her oldest brother is 60 and the second youngest or 5 is 7 years older then Abby) since she became the caretaker of her sickly parents and after they past her siblings say her as the maiden aunt that will be there to sooth her many nieces and nephews and to be pushed from one sister house to her brothers house when they need her âservitude'. That made her want to become her pawn person and have a job, even might get her a husband and then children is that happens, but she finally stood up for her self in front of her beloved family. She knew taking the job as Gwen governess might cause problems but Abby was hoping that her long lost love a rakehell, playboy/ rouge will never find out that Abby is there in his country home. But an unexpected case of the measles, a prizefighter and future mistress in the make will bring the rake Max Bryce Rothwell to the only place close enough to protect is investment in the boxer, and hopefully entice a widow to his bed as a mistress but the she wants titled and money). First time in 15 year Since Abby sees Max in the library with his mouth on the widow's lips and his hand up her skirt, Abby know the stories she heard but comparing the boy she knew to the man she watching will force her broken heart to become encased in unbreakable stone, if she to stay out of her family's bouncing maid she will have to push her love for the boy she knew to the back of her mind to keep her job as governess and not to let memories to make her a fool for Max ever again.
