Unexpected Holiday

Disgrace had suddenly turned into dazzling opportunity for Miss Evalyn Pennington. When she lost her post of governess on false charges of pursuing her employer's eligible son, this spirited young lady found an ally in James Everard, heir to an earldom, who invited Evalyn to visit his vast country estate until she found a new position.

But little did James know that he had brought home the one woman who could stir love in the heart of his remote father, the elegant Earl of Gyllford—or that his reticence about Evalyn's situation had led the Earl to believe that Evalyn was secretly his son's fiancée. This is Regency romance at its sparkling best —a story of mistaken motives and love's triumph.
