A Lady Dares (2013)
“‘I told you, no work.’ Dorian waved down a wherry man. ‘The Vauxhall Stairs,’ he called.
‘Vauxhall?’ Elise questioned, taking his hand and stepping aboard. ‘It’s March.’ ‘So?’ Dorian grinned.
‘So? You do know Vauxhall is closed. It’s not open until June.’ She hated to ruin his plans, but he’d been gone—perhaps he’d forgotten.
‘I know.’ He gave her a lazy smile, his hand warm at her back as he guided her to the railing of the wherry for the short trip across the Thames. He leaned close, making h...er acutely aware of his proximity. ‘It makes it more fun. We shall have the place to ourselves and no one shall be the wiser.’ It took Elise a moment to digest his meaning. ‘We’re going to break into Vauxhall?’ The wherry bumped against the wharf, signalling their arrival. Dorian leapt on to the pier, slinging a haversack over his shoulder. ‘In answer to your question, simply yes.’ This would be the perfect time to turn back, her conscience prodded.MoreLess
