Description: A Regency - era romantic comedy with a deliciously feminist and queer twist from the New York Times bestselling author of Gwen & Art Are Not in Love. There's a new governess at Fairmont House and she's going to be nothing but trouble. Emily Laurence is a liar. She is not polite she's not polished and she has never taught a child in her life. This position was meant to be her sister's brilliant kind Amy who isn't perpetually angry dangerously reckless and who does (inexplicably) like children. But Amy is unwell and needs a doctor and their father is gone and their mother is useless so here Emily is pretending to be something she's not. If she can get away with her deception for long enough to earn a few month's wages and slip some expensive trinkets into her pockets along the way perhaps they'll be all right. That is as long as she doesn't get involved with the Edwards family's dramas. Emily refuses to care about her charges - Grace who talks too much and loves too hard and Aster who is frankly terrifying but might just be the wittiest sixteen - year - old Emily has ever met - or the servants who insist on acting as if they're each other's family. And she certainly hasn't noticed her employer the brooding taciturn Captain Edwards no matter how good he might look without a shirt on As Fairmont House draws her in Emily's lies start to come undone. Can she fix her mistakes before it's too late?
