In My Wildest Dreams

Christina Dodd - In My Wildest Dreams

Christina Dodds's popular Distinguished Academy of Governesses trilogy (Rules of Surrender, Rules of Engagement, and Rules of Attraction) may be completed, but the romantic adventures of one young woman trained there have just begun. Having received glowing references upon leaving her post in Paris in a diplomatic household, Celeste Milford is delighted to accept a position at Blythe Hall, where her mother was the cook, her father the gardener, and Ellery Throckmorton, the younger son of the family, her idol.

Those first impressions as the gorgeous East with all its countless sounds and colours forms and odours burst upon us; mingled pleasures and disgusts all new undreamed-of or our wildest dreams enhanced!
