Amazon Description:
London, 1934. Entrusted by Her Majesty the Queen with grooming Jack Altringham—the Duke of Eynsford’s newly discovered heir fresh from the Outback of Australia—for high society, Georgie now has the luxurious opportunity to live in one of England’s most gorgeous stately homes. But upon her arrival at Kingsdowne Place, Georgie finds herself in a manor full of miscreants, none of whom are pleased with the discovery of her new ward.
Then the duke announces he wants to choose his own heir and causes quite the hubbub. Somewhere along the way Jack’s hunting knife ends up in the duke’s back. Eyes fall, backs turn, and fingers point to the young heir. As if the rascal weren’t enough of a handful, now he’s suspected of murder. But while Jack may be wild, Georgie would bet the crown jewels it wasn’t he who killed the duke...

I'm just over half way through now and, thankfully, I'm looking at a quiet night at work thanks to the snow storm currently under way so I may actually finish it by the time I get home in eight hours. I already have the next one in the series so I may go ahead and do them back-to-back. It will save me from having to think too much about what to read next and I have so missed Georgiana .... and Darcy 💓
