Thoroughly Mannerly Milicent

By Judi Thoman

Lady Millicent has tried to be the picture of perfect society manners, but she seems doomed to bumble her way through dinners and functions, much to the dismay of her very proper family. So what better than to trade the curse of London society for the highlands of Scotland where manners will not be important?

Lady Millicent finds it difficult enough to be launched into polite society without the added burden of living in her famous mother's shadow. Her mother, the extremely proper Duchess of Weatherly, is the author of a renowned best-selling tome on manners, setting the bar higher than Millicent is able to perform.

In an unprecedented act of rebellion, Millicent flees to avoid bringing the family name to shame with her unmannerly exploits. However, with a tidy dowry settled upon her lovely head, she can't travel under her own name and opts for Milli. But during her travels to Scotland, she's rescued by a handsome highlander, and she believes her future is about to improve.

Lord McDougal doesn't expect to find love on a stormy night on the road to Lock Droma. He needs a wife, but can it be this easy? He doesn't expect a would-be governess with a wild imagination and a dark secret can fit into his life, but little does he know...
