Jenny was free to travel - anywhere! Jenny Armitage had never travelled before she took on the job of looking after the Comte de St. Alais’ children in Marrakesh, the Moroccan city witch is such a fascinating blend of old and new, east and west. She was so thrilled by it all that Max Daintry thought she was too young and ingenuous for the responsible position of governess. The Comtesse began to think she was too pretty as well, particularly as Max, the case-hardened man of thirty-five, seemed to be taking a protective interest in her. It was true Jenny was a country woman of his, but the lovely Frenchwoman was not accustomed to sharing the interest of any man with another member of her own sex. Jenny herself entertained a good many doubts about Max Daintry. In fact, her disapproval of him was so strong that she was considerably alarmed to find herself becoming more and more conscious of his masculine attraction. Where, she wondered, was it all going to lead?
