But life at Harcourt Hall is anything but proper. Between muddy adventures with the children, whispered scandals, and stolen moments that feel far too much like courtship, Meg begins to suspect that the most dangerous thing in this arrangement is how much she wants it to be real.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd Nathaniel?
