Beauty Like
the Night, by Liz Carlyle
The daughter of London’s wickedest widow,
Helene de Severs has learned to govern her own reckless emotions.
Renowned within Europe’s emerging field of psychiatric medicine, Helene
has a gift for healing children. When fate sends her back to the village
she once left in disgrace, Helene is confident she can govern her own
reckless emotions, too.
The Earl of Treyhern has dragged his
family back from the brink of ruin. But a disastrous marriage has left
him with a traumatized child, and his rebellious brother Bentley is just
one step ahead of the bailiffs. When his father drops dead while
debauching the governess, Treyhern’s famous self-control almost snaps.
Desperately in need of a good governess, Treyhern hires the very best.
And when Helene steps down from his carriage, his resolve is truly
tested—by a rush of desire he’d long thought dead.
