Honoria climbed back into Daniel’s arms, nuzzling her head against his chest, the sticky raspberry jam spreading across his white cravat. “Brave, Papa.”
Myra looked around at their little family. Three children, a picnic of crumbs and sticky jam, and a beautiful estate. It was hers, all of it, and she wouldn’t trade a moment of her life for anything. “I daresay, Mr. Northcott, we have done rather well.”
“For a marriage contrived by my mother and a fortune teller’s shackles, I suppose you are right, my dear.”
“You are a better man than I ever could have found for myself.”
He grinned as he reached out and entwined his fingers through the tendrils at her neck. “And you are still too clever for me.”
“What do you think, Mr. Northcott? If you could go back to that day five years ago, would you dare enter the fortune teller’s tent again?”
He leaned forward and brushed a light kiss across her lips. “A thousand and one times, and then once more, my love.”
The Next Installment In the Madcaps of Mayfair
The Duke I Despise
She’s out to ruin him. He’s determined to charm her. Only one can win…unless they both surrender.
Miss Juliana Astley is far too clever to fall for a silver-tongued duke, especially one foolish enough to wager on stealing a kiss. Unlike her starry-eyed younger sisters, Juliana has no intention of being mistaken for a madcap. So, when she overhears the Duke of Windsor boasting to his friends that he can win a kiss from her, and that he has written her name in White’s infamous betting book, she doesn’t swoon.
She plots her revenge.
The duke doesn’t realize he has made a formidable enemy, until the intoxicatingly lovely Miss Astley refuses to stand up with him at a crowded ball. To add insult to injury, a rather scandalous calling card with his name on it has begun circulating through the ton…yet no one knows its origin.
Witty, romantic, and delightfully scandalous, The Duke I Despise is an irresistible enemies-to-lovers closed-door Regency romp where pride meets its match.
