Miss Katrina Carrick had two goals. The first, was to sell the contents of her father’s bookshop to pay his debtors. The second, to secure another position as a governess.
Lord Timothy Strotham wanted nothing more than to purchase the contents of the Carrick’s Book Shop and Lending Library and be on his way. He did not count on getting the deceased owner’s daughter as part of the bargain.
When thrust together, will Lord Timothy be able to deny his own desires, or will Katrina proved to be too much of a temptation? When it comes time for them to part, will either be able to let go?

Katrina Carrick had hoped this day would never arrive. She’d done everything in her power to stop it from happening but had failed.
Sick dread filled her as she paced within the Carrick Book Shop and Lending Library. The smell of leather and paper was home to her, and soon it would belong to another.
This shop had been her father’s love, especially after Katrina’s mother died. He poured all that he had into this place and their home, which was a set of rooms above the shop. Katrina had been raised in this building, sleeping above and reading below at every opportunity.
She’d tried to keep the shop open after her father’s sudden death a year ago, but the debts made it impossible and the hardest thing she’d ever had to do was decide to sell everything. She knew her father had struggled but Katrina had no idea as to the extent until the bill collectors began to come around. The shop that he loved didn’t make enough funds to pay down those debts. They barely paid for their basic needs.
