Rosemary or Too Clever To Love: A Regency Romance

The Ugly Duckling meets the Gothic Novel. The plain governess, the romantic Miss, the stern but handsome guardian, a midnight chase, a woman in britches, a gloomy castle. Throw in a bit of Vivaldi and some French philosophy, and you have it all!

He isn't impressed by the romantic notions Marianne has absorbed straight from the pages of a Gothic novel. And her governess is not only dowdy but perfectly ready to put him in his place, especially regarding his ideas about the education of women. But when the Earl's interest in Rosemary blossoms just as Marianne falls in love with the last person he would ever agree to her marrying, where will it all end?
