THE GOVERNESS OF HIGHLAND HALL

Fans of Downton Abbey, Jane Eyre, and author Julie Klassen will fall in love with this upper class/lower class romance set in Edwardian England.

During this time in England, wealth and social standing ruled the day. But when Julia Foster, a spirited young woman and former missionary takes a job as governess, she catches the eye of the owner of Highland Hall, Sir William Ramsey. She believes her time as a missionary has prepared her for the position, but she finds caring for the Ramsey children much more challenging than any missionary work she has ever done. Sir William Ramsey must decide if he will follow his heart and marry for love or choose a wealthy bride whose fortune can save his family's estate from ruin. Can Julia's godly character and pure heart secure William's affection, or will the pull toward wealth, power, and position destroy their future happiness? The Governess of Highland Hall captures both the upstairs and downstairs aspects of Edwardian life, giving readers an emotional connection with the wealthy, cultured aristocracy and the hardworking, loyal servants. FIRST IN A SERIES: The Edwardian Brides series will feature three books, to be released one per year. Each bride is a character from Highland Hall, the setting for the series.
