A Night Like This

Julia Quinn

Book 2 of Smythe-Smith Quartet

A governess hiding a secret past catches the eye of an earl who has just returned from years of self-imposed exile after a duel gone wrong. As Anne Wynter tries to keep her head down while caring for her three high-spirited young charges, Daniel Smythe-Smith finds himself falling for her even as an old enemy threatens to resurface and put them both in danger. It's a light, humor-filled Regency romance that blends courtship, family comedy, and a late-book suspense plot. The story is part of Julia Quinn's Bridgerton-adjacent Smythe-Smith family of books.
