Duke in Disguise

In the second book of her "Sisters of Willow Pond" trilogy, USA Today bestseller Gayle Callen writes about an enigmatic faux-Duke who enchants and seduces a sheltered governess... After her father dies, leaving Miss Meriel Shelby and her mother penniless, Meriel takes the position of governess to the Duke of Thanet's son. But all is not what it appears, and her new employer is really Richard O'Neill, the duke's bastard brother! Richard had agreed to participate in the masquerade to help protect the duke's six-year-old heir from their cousin, a man who is next in line to the dukedom, but he certainly didn't agree to further complications in the form of the tempting Meriel living in the same household. Now they not only have to worry about protecting the young heir's life, but Richard and Meriels's hearts are at risk....Callen, Gayle is the author of 'Duke in Disguise ', published 2006 under ISBN 9780060784126 and ISBN 0060784121.
