Summary
When the Duke of Wiltshire hires Miss Hermione Granger to be the new governess for his young sister and his ward, they both assume it will be like any other post.
The duke does not imagine a woman with an unknown past who makes the Manor's corrupted magic react the moment she steps foot on the grounds. And Hermione is not expecting one of her charges to be shrouded in mysteries that she feels compelled to solve, even though the duke continues to get in her way.
Set against a dying Malfoy Manor, the launching of a young lady in her first Season, and a deepening medical mystery, our favorite couple is drawn together and may find love.
But there is a problem, and it's even larger than their differences in station: the Manor is hungry, and it wants Hermione all for itself.
