Her Quicksilver Lover: Even Gods Fall in Love, book 6 (2016)
“Joanna protested. Although reluctant to return to the club, anticipation simmered in her belly when she thought of the handsome proprietor. The one she must do her best to avoid. “Perhaps White’s needs a kitchen maid.”
“You are made for more than that,” he said angrily. “Your mother would have wept to see you now.”
But Joanna was alive, and well fed. The food in the kitchens at the Pantheon was better than she’d had for a long time. She didn’t like thinking how long it had been since she’d had roast mutton and potatoes, but she would have it today. She was warm, and she had the companionship of other maids. If it were not for one thing—one person—she would have been happy to continue for some time.
The thought of meeting him again made her heart beat madly in her chest. Resisting the urge to press her hand there, she reached for the door latch instead. As she opened it, she caroomed into someone coming the other way.
