By the time Devil returns to England, he's too late to save her... but if he can obtain the right governess, one who specializes in working with children others have deemed unmanageable, he might be able to save his niece.

But danger looms when Marina's wastrel, fortune hunting father returns, intent on claiming his daughter. Willa and Devil must work together to keep the little girl safe-is it a recipe for disaster or a recipe for love?The Hellion Club SeriesBook 1 - A Rogue to RememberBook 2 - Barefoot in Hyde ParkBook 3 - What Happens in PiccadillyBook 4 - Sleepless in SouthhamptonBook 5 - When an Earl Loves a GovernessBook 6 - The Duke's Magnificent ObsessionBook 7 - The Governess Diaries

Paula Quinn

Cainnech (Cain) MacPherson's hatred for the English was born when he was a lad of seven, the day they raided his village and killed his family. They took everything from him without mercy and tossed him onto the battlefield, where the memory of love faded to dust and left nothing in its wake but violence. Now, as Robert the Bruce's most formidable, most lethal warrior, he wreaks havoc on his enemy, taking land by force and without mercy. But when he raids a small castle in Northumberland, he faces his greatest opponent yet-a bold, beautiful Norman lass who will see him dead at any cost rather than give up her home...even if it means tearing open his armored heart and stirring the ashes that remain. Aleysia d'Argentan will do anything to keep the hated Scots out of her castle and away from her villagers. She has prepared for this day for the last four years, building traps in the forest, poisoning the grain, and hiding daggers wherever she could use them to kill her enemy. But she isn't prepared for the brawny, brooding Highland warlord who invades her life-and her heart. He is an infuriating, irresistible opponent with a curious touch, a smoldering kiss, and a reluctant smile that begins to shine on her alone.
