Emily Barnet is a successful published author.
She was born in the United Kingdom and her early years were shaped by the diverse landscapes and the history of her home land. Her father’s work meant that the family would spend some of their time in the Scottish Highlands with all of its rugged beauty, placed among the moors and the castles of Scotland. It was here that Emily first saw her imagination soar and it was then that her love for storytelling began.
Emily came back to England after some time and finished studying literature at Oxford University. From there, she went across the Atlantic to go to the United States and moved her family there to Kansas City. She was surrounded by the energy of urban living and was able to focus on her writing while taking in inspiration from the community and culture surrounding her.
The author really enjoys city life but also has a soft spot for her countryside home in Vermont. It’s there that she goes to in the summer months so that she can recharge and connect with nature. It is placed in the rolling hills and has beautiful landscapes and serves as a type of retreat for Emily, a place where she can tend to her creative pursuits while also finding inspiration for her Regency romance series.
Emily loves spending time with Winston, her golden retriever. She splits her time between two different homes and is able to harness the magic of the city and the country in this way. Like so many other authors, she is driven by the passion that she has for storytelling and wants to share what she loves so much about Regency romance with her many readers, giving them an opportunity to experience a world full of love and happily ever after endings.

The Governess and the Duke in Grief is the second book in The Courting Season series by Emily Barnet. If you thought that the first book in this series was fun, then keep the romance going in this story that is full of intrigue and passion.
Miss Gillian Audley needs to help support her family and knowing this, she decides to take on a governess position at Clarenwood. The future of her family is dependent on her making a good living, and so she is determined to do her best to succeed.
Once she gets there, Gillian is slightly put off by the house. She feels that she can hear whispers in its halls, and the duke that lives there seems more akin to an apparition than an actual human man. Marcus Carmichael is the Duke of Clarenwood but he is also a man deeply affected by grief.
Ever since the death of his wife, he has put up the walls and is determined not to let anyone see past them. He doesn’t expect a lot from the governess, but the more that he interacts with her the more that he likes her. He is impressed by her strength and the kindness that she offers him, and he feels like it’s even having an effect on the icy cage that surrounds his heart.
As it turns out, the house may be hiding more than just grief. Gillian and Marcus are going to have to deal with more secrets and deal with threats too. Dealing with the past might be the only shot that they have at keeping it from affecting their love.
Can they deal with it all and preserve their new relationship? Can the Duke ever allow himself to love again or is this just a temporary moment that will quickly fade? Find out by getting your hands on the entertaining second book in Emily Barnet’s series!
