She's known for keeping her employer's secrets, and when she is selected by the Earl of Clarcton, that is precisely why. Because the Earl, Timothy Lexington, has secrets. Secrets he has worked hard to keep from the world for the last two years. While scandal waits in the wings, Clarcton Castle has entire wings that are shut off and the Countess is nowhere to be found. Anne may be discrete, but that doesn't mean she's not curious. When Timothy makes a scandalous request of her - pretend to be his countess at the Christmas Ball to prevent rumors of her disappearance from spreading - he doesn't tell her why. He doesn't tell her she has a strange and unexplainable resemblance to his wife. Anne is faced not only with half-lies and stony-faced servants...but a growing passion for the man she knows is lying to her. When an Earl won't tell the truth about his own wife, a governess has only one course of action: accept the lies demurely. What a shame Anne isn't going to stop seeking the truth. As the Christmas Ball grows closer, will Anne learn to trust a man she knows is trying to deceive her? Is it possible that the truth, once found, will bring them closer together - or break the connection forever?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sensational US debut of a major French writer—an intense, delicious meringue of a novella In a large country house shut off from the world by a gated garden, three young governesses responsible for the education of a group of little boys are preparing a party. The governesses, however, seem to spend more time running around in a state of frenzied desire than attending to the children’s education. One of their main activities is lying in wait for any passing stranger, and then throwing themselves on him like drunken Maenads. The rest of the time they drift about in a kind of sated, melancholy calm, spied upon by an old man in the house opposite, who watches their goings-on through a telescope. As they hang paper lanterns and prepare for the ball in their own honor, and in honor of the little boys rolling hoops on the lawn, much is mysterious: one reviewer wrote of the book’s “deceptively simple words and phrasing, the transparency of which works like a mirror reflecting back on the reader.” Written with the elegance of old French fables, the dark sensuality of Djuna Barnes and the subtle comedy of Robert Walser, this semi-deranged erotic fairy tale introduces American readers to the marvelous Anne Serre.
