A quiet governess...an unruly heart.

Sir Nicholas Denny is desperate to find a governess to care for his boisterous nieces and nephews. Demure vicar's daughter Mary Smith seems ideal — at first. All too soon Nicholas discovers a different side...a beautiful, vivacious woman, even if she infuriates him with her strong opinions! When he waltzes with Mary at a party, he knows he's in trouble — the spark between them is so tempting, but she challenges everything he thought he wanted in a wife!
