The Scandalous Love of a Duke
“The air rushed past him. It was hot. One of England’s rare truly summer days. It felt good, and he liked the sound of thundering hoof beats, tack and creaking springs, and the jolting of the carriage as it raced along the track. Robbie had spent the last two months bragging about the day they’d bought this matching pair and curricle. Thinking of Robbie made John remember the money he’d settled on his brothers. He’d told Edward it was to ensure his brothers would live in a fashion which would no...t embarrass a duke. The truth was it eased John’s conscience, because he’d had little to do with any of them since the day he’d taken Robbie to Tattersalls. He did not feel a part of his family anymore. There was too much of a gap in years, and status. So he’d traded genuine affection for cold hard coin. He’d agreed to enhance his sisters’ dowries too. Mary had hugged him when he’d told her and John had warned her of fortune hunters. As he thought of marriage, his mind turned to Eleanor and Nettleton.MoreLess
