Mr. Gardiner and the Governess, by Sally Britton, gives an interesting glimpse at the social world of the gentry in 1818 England. The Duchess of Montfort is looking to engage a new governess. She has no idea that the woman she hires, Alice Sharpe, will not only change her family’s lives, but also numerous individuals working and living on their estate!
One of the first to cross Alice’s path is Mr. Rupert Gardiner, the scientist working to document much of the flora and fauna that exist on this land. When Rupert discovers that Alice has an interest in this type of work, he realizes he has found the perfect partner to help complete his work!
You will soon learn that Rupert and Alice complete much more than just a scientific journal!
This short tale is the beginning of a fun series by Sally Britton!
