The daughter of an impecunious baron—and a woman with few llusions and even fewer assets—Katherine Sanderson has just accepted the position of governess to the infant daughter of the Earl of Moncrief. The notorious, sinfully handsome nobleman has deposited the babe at a crumbling country estate, to be raised by servants. Although it is more than many an aristocrat would do for a child born on the wrong side of the blanket, Katherine disdains his selfish arrogance...even as she finds herself falling beneath his sensual spell. For Freddie Lattimore, Earl of Moncrief, his illegitimate child is a constant reminder of a life he would rather forget. But the exquisite Katherine tempts him as no woman ever has. When he devises a scandalous scheme for conquest, Katherine doesn't merely accept his outrageous proposal, she astonishes him with a passion that exceeds his own.
Author

I’m a writer who’s been privileged to have attained the New York Times and USA Today Bestseller Lists. Although I've primarily written historical romance, I've also written contemporary romantic suspense, a murder mystery, and I'm having a wonderful time writing about a vampire who is being challenged by her new state of being. (The Montgomery Chronicles: The Fertile Vampire and The Reluctant Goddess coming March 12, 2015.) I believe in the power of the individual, the magnificence of the human spirit, and always looking for the positive in any situation. I write about people who have been challenged by life itself but who win in the end. Newsletter: http://karenranney.com/subscribe-warm... Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/WriterKarenRa...
