The Governess Affair by Courtney Milan Brothers Sinister #0.5 (prequel novella) She will not give up… Three months ago, governess Serena Barton was let go from her position. Unable to find new work, she’s demanding compensation from the man who got her sacked: a petty, selfish, swinish duke. ...
Same great prose, characters, and sex as the novel length Brothers Sinister works, but a bit short on plot for my tastes. This story takes place decades before the first novel, but is really best read after the second novel.
