A Spinster's Luck Lady Luck Luck had always eluded Celia Langston. When her parents passed away ten years ago, she had to make her own way in the world, forsaking a come-out Season in London--and any chance at marriage. But Celia, now a governess, was never one for self-pity. Rather, at the age of six-and-twenty, she has accepted the lot Fate has dealt her -- that of a spinster.... With his handsome face, reputation for bravery in the war, and princely fortune, the Duke of Severly has never suffered for want of female companionship. The creme de la creme hang on his every word. So when he takes notice of his nephew's governess--for even the plainest of gray dresses cannot conceal her regal poise and delicious curves- -Severly surprises even himself. For one, he has never admired a woman below his station, let alone a governess. For another, Celia seems to hold a grudge against him. But her rejection of him only fans the flames of his desire, and Severly knows he's in for a long and difficult chase....
