“It was past two in the morning, but Rosie didn't feel the least bit tired. The evening had been so full of excitement for her that she still felt agog with it all. When they finally went home, she doubted she would be able to sleep a wink. Her head was spinning with introductions and flattery and flirtations. When she had first begun planning her trip to London, she had secretly hoped there might be a remote possibility of attracting at least one gentleman's regard. Not with the usual goal of m...arriage, of course, but only to experience it, to know what it was like to have a gentleman admire her. More than admire, actually. She longed for more than that. After all, she had added "to be thoroughly kissed" to her list of things to do in London. Giddy with a first night's success, Rosie thought it might not be the impossible goal she had once imagined. Upon reflection, she was genuinely amazed at what she had been able to accomplish as Rosalind. The old Rosie would have quivered in her slippers to have endured the often presumptuous addresses of so many gentlemen—from fresh-faced young fops to seasoned rakes to aging roués.MoreLessRead More Read Less
