Ending the Year Well

In 24 hours we'll all be ringing in a New Year . . . but how will you be ending your old one? Make it count. Don't be a slacker.

When a prim and proper governess is called home to her ailing father's bedside, her ship is ravaged by smugglers and her heart captured by the leader of them all -- the local lord of the manor. It's within her power to reveal the gentleman's secret . . . and within his to cast her out of town.
