Amelia Tippin might be only a maid at the prestigious Beasley Governess Academy, but she knows she’s capable of more. When her Aunt Beasley dies before allowing her to attend classes, a desperate Amelia takes a gamble and applies for a governess position despite her lack of formal training. Christopher Easton, Viscount Beaumont, has but one mission—discover what or who caused the carriage accident that took both his sister and brother-in-law’s lives. Hiring a suitable governess for his niece and nephew who will also tolerate his eccentric—if brilliant—father will allow him to venture to the dark side of London to find the cause. With love as the prize. Christopher is more than intrigued by the new governess who has a way with the children as well as with his impossible father. He can’t resist her charms and sharing kisses has never been so delightful, but wariness lingers in her eyes, making him wonder at the cause. Amelia soon realizes that revealing the secret she holds places both her position and the connection quickly building between her and the handsome viscount in danger. Yet how can she hope for anything more with her deceit standing between them? When Christopher finds the man who stole the lives of his family, he must decide how much of a gamble he’s willing to take to win the governess's heart.

This book was released on 2014-08-26 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry James and the Poetics of Duplicity aims to advance the field of studies on the life and work of Henry James by fully exploring the author’s use of duplicity, one of the key literary and rhetorical strategies within the author’s vast and infamous arsenal of techniques of ‘ambiguity’. The collection brings together essays by both long established and more recent Jamesian scholars from eleven different countries, the collective work of whom, through this publication, further enhances our grasp of the ever-elusive literary style of Henry James. The prefatory section of this volume provides a general overview of the myriad uses of ‘duplicity’ in the writings of Henry James. The collected essays are then divided into five sections, each providing an in-depth study of a particular use of duplicity as a rhetorical strategy. The first three sections focus on duplicitous devices employed within James’s works of fiction – including the author’s often underhanded use of undisclosed literary sources (‘Duplicitous Subtexts’), his staging of characters who rely on subterfuge and outright lying (‘Duplicitous Characters’), and his creation of doubles and doppelgängers – another key connotation of the term ‘duplicity’ – both within a single work and throughout his literary career (‘Duplicitous Representation’). The two final sections then focus the poetics of duplicity employed in works of non-fiction by James, including his autobiographies and his reviews of other authors, as well as in his personal writings and correspondence. This includes James’s guileful use of duplicity in his representation of himself, particular attention being paid to James’s late works of self-assessment (‘Duplicitous Self-Representation’), as well as in his assessments of other writers in his reviews or of certain places in his travel writing (‘Duplicitous Judgements’). Henry James and the Poetics of Duplicity would thus be a great asset to scholars of James at all levels, from the student grappling with James’s literary sleight of hand for the first time, to specialists in the field of James who have long studied the masterful art of James’s literary trickery.

Lady Alexandra has perfected the art of invisibility, forced to trade her glittering world of privilege for a life in the shadows. Now serving as a governess under an assumed name, she never expected to find refuge in the home of the notorious Duke of Ravencroft - a darkly handsome widower whose penetrating gaze threatens to see through her carefully constructed facade. As she bonds with his three grief-stricken children, Alexandra discovers that Thornfield Hall harbors dangerous mysteries of its own. Each midnight encounter with the brooding Duke brings her closer to surrendering to their forbidden attraction, even as mysterious threats begin to circle ever closer. But when her past and his collide in a web of dangerous deceptions, Alexandra must choose: keep running from the darkness of her past, or stand and fight for a love that could either save or destroy them both. Set against the sumptuous backdrop of Victorian high society, "A Governess’s Secret" is a masterfully crafted tale of passion, intrigue, and redemption that will hold readers spellbound until the very last page. If you’re a fan of books by Lisa Kleypas, Sarah MacLean, and Evie Dunmore, this deliciously seductive tale of disguised identity and dangerous romance will leave you breathless for more.

Book excerpt: Rivalry, romance, and scandal run hot in this Wicked Wallflowers novel from USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwell. Regina (Reggie) Spark has loved Broderick Killoran, the resourceful and protective proprietor of the Devil's Den, ever since he saved her from the streets and made her his right hand at the notorious gaming hell. For just as long, Reggie has never admitted her true feelings for him. Nor has she revealed her spirited ambitions--to buck convention and expectations and open a music hall. While Broderick built his gaming empire with ruthless cunning, his loyalty to his employees is boundless. So when he learns of Reggie's plan to leave his side and take charge of her own future, the betrayal cuts Broderick to the core. He responds as he would to any business rival...with swift retribution. Instead of wilting, the savvy Reggie rebounds with a fury that shocks Broderick and stirs a desire he's been holding in reserve for only ladies of nobility. But as their seductive battle of wills ignites under the harsh spotlight of the London Season, secrets are exposed as well--ones that could be ruinous in decent society but invaluable for the heart.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emily Dickinson's poem, 'This is my letter to the World/ That never wrote to Me --', opens the Introduction, which focuses on the near-anonymity of nineteenth-century women novelists. Close readings of works by five British novelists Jane Austen, Charlotte and Emily Brontë, Elizabeth Gaskell, and George Eliot offer persuasive accounts of the ways in which women used stealth tactics to outmaneuver their detractors. Chapters examine the 'hidden manifesto' in Austen's works, whose imaginative heroines defend women's writing; the lasting impact of Jane Eyre, with its modest heroine who takes up the pen to tell her own story, even on male writers outside the English tradition; Cathy's testament as the 'ghost-text' of Wuthering Heights; and the shifting gender roles in Daniel Deronda, with its silenced heroine and androgynous hero. Though the focus is on British novelists, the author's discussion of the Anglo-American connections in the factory novels of Elizabeth Gaskell and the slavery writings of Harriet Beecher Stowe has particular relevance for its demonstration of how the move from the private to the public sphere enables and even compels the blurring of national and ethnic boundaries. What emerges is a compelling argument for the relevance of these novelists to the emergence in our own time of hitherto-silenced female voices around the globe.
