A Scandalous Proposal (2016)
“What a mess she’d made, believing herself to be so brilliant.
But she did love the ring.
Not that it was hers, not really.
Although it could be.
But only because Cooper Townsend was a gentleman, and a man of his word. A hero, who insisted he was not a hero.
Not that she’d hold him to their supposed compromise and proposal. They would find the blackmailer. Coop would give him a good thrashing and suggest an ocean voyage, perhaps to India. She’d worry that another man might el...iminate the blackmailer in a more permanent way, but not Coop. Still, the man would get the message! They would retrieve and then promptly burn Mari’s letters; the damning chapbook would never be published; and Coop’s secrets would remain safe and his head continue to ride secure on his neck, the Prince Regent or whomever never the wiser that some deep dark secret was nearly spilled all over London.MoreLess
