Second book in Metzger's House of Cards triology. This is the Honorable Johnathan (Jack) Endicott's story. Now a hardened Peninsular war hero and home again, he and prim governess, Allison Silver, "lock horns" when she delivers an eight year-old, redheaded "brat" into his care after he has been made the wretched little girl's ward by an old army friend. Some really humorous moments involving the precocious little girl and the old dog had me laughing out loud. This story is quite romantic, touching and witty.
