   Summary

   **COMPLETE!**

    

   It's 1870, Shane answers an advertisement to tutor 6 year old Nikolai Rozanov, but the decaying mansion of Withernsea holds more than just servants and a worryingly handsome Russian landowner...

   Think Jane Eyre and The Woman In White but with lots of slow burn Shane and Ilya falling in love.

   (Yes, it's a Victorian gothic romance trope fic!)
