My aunt decided to marry me off to an old rich man, hiding the unflattering truth about our family line. To avoid the wedding, I fled from home and became a governess for a notoriously bad-tempered duke. He is indecently wealthy, closed off, and he too is hiding something. Only lately I keep noticing the way he looks at me. Will we be able to overcome the secrets that separate us, or is a kiss under the mistletoe only an annoying mistake?
