How many wishes must one make for a dream to come true?

A lady who dreamt of the impossible. A gentleman tempted by fate's calling. Would destiny show this couple the love they hold for one another?

Grace Penrose fled to Scotland to avoid the vicious rumors circulating about her in London. Though they were false, they forced her to accept a position with an insufferable Scottish lord. When he wasn't questioning Grace about her governess skills, he filled her thoughts with fanciful dreams of him, declaring his unrequited love. She thought he didn't share her feelings until one rainy night under the Scottish moonlight. Did one kiss change her luck?

Calum Lockhart spent his days attempting to keep his siblings out of trouble. With the grand idea of a governess to keep them in line, his mother foiled his attempt by hiring a lady embroiled in her own set of conflicts. Instead of enjoying peaceful days on his estate, he spent them in one disagreement after another with the stubborn miss. Calum was unsure when the governess consumed his every thought. Soon he spent his days waiting for her smile.

One foolish incident led Grace and Calum toward a ripple effect of scandal. With his protection, Calum offered Grace security against their harmful enemies. Was their destiny within their grasp? Or was a wish just a wish?

The Wishful Governess is the second book in Laura A. Barnes's False Rumors series. If you love governess romances, then you'll love how Calum falls for Grace's charms.
