The Bridal Contract (Darrington Family book 3) (2015)
“He’d been awake since dawn and plagued with thoughts of Eloisa, his family, and his upcoming sailing schedule. It had been two days since his pretty neighbor had ripped his heart from its moorings and trampled upon it. Two days since she’d all but confirmed he couldn’t compete with the memory of what her ideal man was. No wonder he’d never wanted to seek out a bride. If this was how a man was treated, who needed that sort of abuse?
Finally, he sat up, stuffed a few pillows behind him and se...ttled among them. What would this day bring? Daily existence had fallen flat since he refused to visit next door even though his contract with Eloisa was still intact. Of course it was. No matter that she’d refused his suit—had he honestly proposed in a roundabout way?—he still planned to honor his part of the bargain. If she couldn’t be happy with him, then he wished her happy wherever she could find peace.
Bah! I’ve grown maudlin in my old age.MoreLess
