Never Seduce a Scoundrel (2012)
“Her head was pounding, her stomach roiling.
She had stayed in her rooms much later in the morn than was her habit, hoping that the nausea would leave her. After retching unproductively a number of times, she thought that she might at last be safe to emerge. And she thanked God yet again that Alys was the cause of her strange maladies of late.
Cecily was not a witch. True, all three of the Foxe sisters possessed some unique and perhaps unexplainable talents. Alys could see a person’s colors; Syb...illa ... well, Cecily suspected that Sybilla did quite a number of things that she really had no desire to know the details of. And Cecily had the annoying habit of feeling the sensations of those she loved who were hurt or in danger, much as she had sensed when Alys had been trapped in the forest months ago, cold and in pain. Cecily could at last accept the infrequent feelings, although she would never liken them to something with such sinister connotations as witchcraft. She was simply very close with her sisters.MoreLess
