It was unthinkable that the dashing and impossible handsome Earl of Beckford should have romantic intentions towards a mere servant. But lovely Sloane Donovan was no ordinary governess. She could ride a high-strung thoroughbred as well as any man, charm the most starchy dowager, and always said exactly what was on her mind. Her behavior was shocking, the gossips whispered, and her outrageous flirtation with his lordship could have but one outcome. She might surrender her body to his practiced seduction, but she would never claim his Unwilling Heart .
Bestselling author Sharon Gillenwater writes stories about love—between a man and a woman, of family and home, and the everlasting love of God and Jesus.
She grew up on a ranch in the Rolling Plains of West Texas, near the small town of Colorado City. Marriage took her across the country, but Texas is still dear to her heart. All of her Christian contemporary romances and most of her Christian historical romances are set in small West Texas towns filled with rugged, yet tenderhearted cowboys and strong, yet compassionate women.
While on a trip to England and Scotland years ago, the history and people captured her imagination. After returning home, she discovered Regency romances and another favorite time period and setting. She currently has two Christian Regency historical romances available, along with three sweet historical Regency romances.
She and her husband live in a quiet, rural area of Washington state with a wonderful view of the mountains. A friend once commented, “It’s like a writer’s retreat.” Sharon agrees and is busy dreaming up stories about Texas cowboys or English and Scottish heroes and the women who win their hearts.

This is my first time reading anything by Mrs. Gillenwater, and I will try something else by her. I truly enjoyed this book from the beginning to the end. The heroine the hero the kids the families of both. Just altogether well done. This is a clean read and I couldn't put it down. Thanks for a new author whom I will now be reading more of.
