The Deception

THE DECEPTION first appeared in April 1983 as a Signet Regency with the title AN INTIMATE DECEPTION. The story has been rewritten as a full-bodied historical romance.

The Duke of Portsmouth offers an impecunious half-French relative a job as his young son's nanny. What he quickly discovers is that he wants her, badly. What he discovers far more slowly is that she isn't at all what she seems. Evangeline de Beauchamps is in way over her head. She has far more to cope with than a nineteen-year-old virgin should ever have. To top it all off, she must play an experienced widow with a man who knows women as well as he knows his horses, or so he thinks. Baron - 3
