To Tempt An Earl
“Of course that was likely because Graham had spent the remainder of the house party under guard.
For pity sake, they were engaged! Yet Clairmont insisted some footman dog him at all hours of the day… and night.
The day wasn't so terrible.
The night, however, was an entirely different story.
In truth, knowledge that a guard was posted outside of his door and, also, Bethanny's door had given him pause before he acted rashly.
But as soon as he kissed the soft skin of her hand and bid her goodnight..., losing himself in the blatant desire in her expression, he'd go to his room… and stare at the door.
Then walk to the window, gaze down at the two-story drop, and calculate just how painful a broken ankle or leg would be. After all, any injury would be worth the reward of capturing a secluded moment — or entire night — with Bethanny.
Truthfully, he might have jumped if the result wouldn't have been a broken bone that would have inhibited the activities he wished to engage in to begin with.MoreLess
