Secret Heiress (2010)
“‘Who is it?’ he said. His shoulder was painful, for it had been a struggle to dress alone. It was damned annoying that he had sent his valet to his uncle with a message; he could have done with some assistance. He had no idea how he would have managed if Eliza had not come to his rescue when he was in the fever—and that was a damned coil. If she had been seen leaving… ‘He gave his name as the Marquis of Cheadle, sir.’ ‘Damn him,’ Daniel muttered and rubbed at his shoulder. ‘Well, he may as well... come up.’ If Cheadle had wanted to kill him he could have done it during their duel.
