The Temptation of a Governess by Sarah Mallory is a gripping tale which explores the complexities of love, trust and vindictiveness in the wake of shocking betrayal. It follows Diana Grenham, a middle-aged society lady with a secret that haunts her daily life - that of childhood abuse and the loss of her innocence.
One night, she accepts a job as a governess for two orphaned children, unaware of the stirring passion she feels during her time at their large family estate. Led into the conspiracy of her employer, Lord Alex Davenport - his cousin and a suitor, also in the know about her past - Diana must protect herself and her wards from those who wish them harm. A search for the truth leads Diana's two protectors into a dangerous duel that pushes the very limits of personal trust. The secret will yield its secrets and perhaps, save one final victim. The story evokes strong emotions and reveals the layers of brokenness that drive people to wrong action. Diana is forced to leave her well-founded life and embark on a pursuit of anger and retribution. As her impulses take over, she hears the ticking clock of vengeance which threatens to destroy all that matters to her. But a deeper exploration of kindness, redemption and human nature sparks a thaw which exposes a new hope - her trust in love.
A powerful study of heartbreak, Sarah Mallory's The Temptations of a Governes holds deep empathy for an individual buried by unforgiving circumstance and compelling enough to draw all attention to the heart and passions we all harbour despite our strengths and resolve.
