After receiving what seems like an offer of employment
from an English countess, orphan Bridget Kelly leaves her
uncle’s house in Dublin to make her own way in the world.
But making her way in England is easier said than done,
especially for an innocent Irish lass with no family or
connections. In fact, she’ll be lucky if she can make it
to Derbyshire alive.
Still smarting from his brother and former fiancée’s
betrayal, rakish Captain Russell Avery arrives at his
sister’s Derbyshire estate, looking for something or
someone to help soothe his bruised ego. When a pretty
little Irish maid stumbles into his chamber one morning,
Russell is certain he’s found just the distraction he’s
looking for. Well, at least until he learns who the lass
truly is and the place she’s to hold in his sister’s
household.
