Thick As Thieves (2014)
“While he may be Lady Upton Grey’s brother, after spending the entirety of dinner seated next to him there was simply no other conclusion Freddie could draw about the man.
He’d conversed politely enough—the gravelly nature of his voice proving him to be the unknown gentleman she’d overheard talking with Lord Upton Grey—and had seemed knowledgeable and cordial and all the various and sundry things one must strive to be at all times when in polite company. And yet, every time Freddie had comme...nted in any way upon any of the gentlemen in her acquaintance, a panicked expression had taken over Lord Preston’s otherwise handsome features.
She’d lost count of how many times his distressed hazel eyes, now nearly gray in color, had flitted away from her to stare at some random spot near the hearth when she would speak. It was the most uncanny thing she’d ever in her life experienced.
Most gentlemen would take care to look at a lady when the lady in question spoke to him.MoreLess
