The Governess Read the Duke's Lips Across the Crowded Ballroom — By Sunrise She Was Gone

From the musicians' gallery high above a crowded ballroom, a quiet governess watched the Duke of Dunstanburgh speak to his oldest friend. She could not hear a word. She did not need to. Dinah had learned to read lips from her deaf mother, and the Duke's lips said: "I am in love with the governess. I will ask her to marry me at sunrise." But then she read the lips of his smiling cousin: "Before sunrise she must be gone." By morning her room was empty, the Duke was waiting alone on the sea wall, and the steward came home with a wet bonnet pulled from a flooded river. Dinah is hiding a name that could ruin the Duke forever. Her father was hanged for a crime against his family. Now a forged letter, a stolen seal, a boat with a secret hole in the bottom and a little deaf girl who sees far more than anyone knows will decide who lives, who hangs and who finally tells the truth. Sit back, relax and enjoy this long Regency romance full of secrets, danger, courage and a love that waits for the sunrise.
