The Governess

Regina "Reggie" Spark has harboured secret feelings for Broderick Killoran, proprietor of the Devil's Den gaming hell, ever since he rescued her from London's streets a decade earlier. She serves as his trusted right hand while concealing both her feelings and her ambition to open a music hall of her own.

When Broderick learns of Reggie's plans to leave, he takes it as a betrayal and responds with swift retribution, treating her as he would any business rival. Rather than surrender, Reggie fights back — igniting his dormant desire and setting off a battle of wills across the London season.

As the conflict intensifies, secrets surface that could cause a scandal in polite society and change everything between them. The Governess is the third Wicked Wallflowers novel, centred on the Killoran family.
