A touch of magic—and a dose of discretion—do wonders when a headmistress and a
thorn-from-her-past rakehell work together to save two children from a Goblin King . . .
As headmistress of The Parasol Academy for Exceptional Nannies and Governesses, impeccable Felicity Temple safeguards the school’s reputation—and intervenes when mayhem strikes. Two children have been abducted by a shape-shifting Goblin King, and with Queen Victoria’s support on shaky ground, what can she do but enlist the help of another Queen—from the Fae realm? But more trouble appears when a far-too-charming rake comes knocking . . .
Behind his deliciously wicked mask, Marcus, Lord Hartwell, has always admired Felicity from afar, keeping both a memento from their childhood and the secret of her supernatural talents. Next-door neighbors, they couldn’t get much closer—unless she agrees to her lifelong nemesis’s proposal: help restore Marcus’s name after an accidental wedding day debacle, and he’ll accompany her journey beyond the veil to save the young charges.
But a different kind of magic sparks as they banter their way to the Fae realm’s northernmost reaches, where unknown enemies lurk in the Highland mists. Resisting the charms of the vexing viscount may be one lesson the lovely headmistress has yet to master. . .
