The Paris Footman — Rosanne E. Lortz

A missing heiress. A trip to Paris. Can a gentleman-turned-footman convince the runaway beauty that at least one man in her life is worthy of trust?

When Gyles Audeley, a rose garden enthusiast, visits London with his mother, he never imagines that he will encounter the enchanting creature whom he met once-upon-a-time in a walled garden. Lady Louisa's life is far from a fairy tale, however, and when she flees from her villainous uncle, Gyles determines to follow any way he can in order to keep her safe.

Louisa Lymington wants nothing more than to remain incognito as a governess until she reaches her twenty-first birthday. But when her safety is threatened, she determines to make her own way to her mother's country of France. Try as she might, however, she can't escape the presence of the chivalrous gardener she met long ago. And the longer he stays by her side, the more she begins to wonder if she truly wants him to leave….

An homage to the beloved Georgette Heyer, this clean and wholesome Regency romance follows the adventures of a runaway noblewoman, a conniving uncle, a foppish cousin, a loyal gardener, and an abandoned empress.
