The Lady’s Companion
Carla Kelly
A Compromising Position
Miss Susan Hampton was a lady born and bred. .She
never imagined she would have to make her own way in
the world. But that was before her feckless father gamed
away the family estate. That was before her odious aunt
turned her into an unpaid servant. Now Susan had fled
that tyranny to wonder if she had leapt out
of the frying pan into the fire.
In a remote country manor, Susan took the post of
companion to the Dowager Lady Bushnell, whose fiery
temper made a dragon seem sweet. But even more
dangerous was the dowager's boldly handsome bailiff,
David Wiggins, whose blood was red, not blue, and who
was everything a man could be except a gentleman.
Desperately, Susan told herself that he was totally
unsuitable as her suitor-even as this infuriatingly
irresistible man awoke her as a woman and made
her forget she was a lady. ...
