Niki (mustreadalltheromance)'s Reviews > Mr. Hunt, I Presume

Erienne Stone has been working as a governess for the past 14 years, but now that the children under her care have grown up she has come to London seeking a new position. She never expects her agency to send her for an interview at the Duke of Claringdon's home. She never expected to see him again after his younger brother, Collin, whom she'd been madly in love with, abandoned her more than a decade prior. But the salary being offered is enough to pay for her brother's much needed surgery, so after much convincing from Lucy, the Duchess, she accepts the governess position and hopes not to have to see Collin.

General Collin Hunt, valued spy and senior official at the Home Office, is being ordered to take a holiday, so he opts to rest and relax at the country estate of his brother, Derek, the Duke of Claringdon. But when the only woman he's ever loved arrives as governess to his young niece and nephew, his world is turned on its ear. Before the elevation of his family from their poor status during childhood to their wealthy, titled, military hero status now, Collin was in love with Erienne, but her gave her up thinking he was doing what was best for her. After all, she was the daughter of a baron and he was just a poor boy from the wrong side of town.

Then the two are thrown together by Collin's sister-in-law, Lucy, but the meddlesome matchmaker's endeavors may not be enough to convince either to risk their heart again.

This was a great little second chance romance. Of course it's short (it's a novella!) but these two had chemistry as soon as they met again, just as if they'd never been separated. I think if they'd had a longer book, Collin would've had more time to mess things up again. They'd already waited so long to have a chance to be together, they didn't need to wait any longer.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Blog link: https://mustreadalltheromance.blogspo...
