Jenny Armitage becomes the governess of Comte de Alais’ children in beautiful Marrakesh, Morocco. She finds herself in the middle of a peculiar love triangle and resisting the attentions of the charming, yet at times questionable, Max Daintry. Her attractiveness also does not go unnoticed by the Comtesse, who clearly wants Jenny out of the picture. Can she live out her passions in such strange circumstances, amidst the obvious charms of the man pursuing her in romantic Morocco? The 20th-century love story was written by Pamela Kent, one of Ida Pollock’s pseudonyms.

A must-read for fans of literary romance and surprising twists of fate.
