Twice Upon a Time (A Danby Family Novella)
“Meredith didn’t speak. Her wide cocoa eyes followed Felicity’s movements as she moved to and from the wardrobe. Placing the last item in the battered valise lying on the bed, Felicity sighed.

Although their mother had become an excellent seamstress since Papa’s death, the quality of the satin and lace were nowhere near what one would... expect a baroness to wear, particularly to an audience with a duke. Lord Penlow would have to accept that her sparse wardrobe was part of the risk he assumed, an independent variable beyond her control, and certainly not a cause to dissolve their agreement.
