All's Fair in Love and War by Virginia Heath, 384 pages
Georgie had a horrible childhood, getting dragged up and down the country with her ruthlessly strict military stepfather, and as a new governess, she's determined to help children learn and find joy in life. But when she's hired to teach and care for the three rambunctious Pendleton children, she finds her easygoing ways at odds with their punctual, exacting uncle Harry. But opposites attract, and Georgie and Harry can't deny their attraction to one another for very long.
There's something reminiscent of The Sound of Music in this story, though it's definitely steamier and has fewer kids. I appreciate the characters (the kids in particular are fantastic, as is their crazy dog), and the setup for a series featuring Georgie's governess pals. The changes that bring them together for their happily ever after are a bit rushed at the end, but overall, it's a solid Regency romance.
