The Importance of Being Wicked (Millworth Manor)
“But then, he had found himself doing a lot of that lately. Miranda and her sister had left for London this morning. Already he missed her, even if the woman seemed determined to drive him mad.
Was he in love with her? What kind of question was that to ask after a kiss? One, single kiss. Extraordinary or not, that was not the thing to ask after one kiss, particularly not a first kiss. Why, there was a time in his life when a kiss meant nothing at all. It certainly wasn’t a commitment for the res...t of his days.
The truth of the matter was, he didn’t know how he felt about her. And, as he had never told a woman he loved her before, that did seem a rather significant declaration to make without serious thought.
He had certainly grown accustomed to her presence. To talking with her, teasing, debating about nothing of significance as well as about matters of importance.
It was as if they had agreed to an unspoken truce on those trips to and from Fairborough. Neither brought up a topic guaranteed to infuriate the other.MoreLess
