Second Chance Marquess
by Jessica
Jefferson
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Historical Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
When
Wilhemina Turner’s younger sister runs off with a young Lothario, she has no
choice but to turn to the notorious rake who broke his promise and her heart,
for assistance. George Bartlett, the Marquess of Chesterton, hasn’t forgotten
the woman who hurt him so many years ago, but can’t deny her request, knowing
that his brother’s reputation, and fortune, is at risk. A series of misfortunes
leave the straight-laced widow and committed bachelor stranded, sharing both
close quarters and old secrets. But when morning comes, will this unlikely pair
find a second chance at love?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT:
He crossed his
arms over his chest. “I’m sure you’re not here to rehash the past. Especially
given the fact that you’ve been residing a few doors down from me for nearly half
the month already and haven’t thought to make the effort before this.”
If she dared,
she would have thought she detected resentment in his voice. “I’m here because
Kitty deserves this chance, every
opportunity that is afforded to her. Which is why I insist on coming with you.
I won’t let anything jeopardize her future and rob her of her happiness.”
Like what happened to me, she finished silently.
“You don’t
trust me?”
“Of course I
don’t. I know too much about you.”
“And what
exactly are you implying?”
“You’ll do
anything to protect your family, you always have.”
“My brother’s
future children will inherit the title one day, so I suppose that gives me a
vested interest in his protection.”
She was
confused. “What of your own children? Wouldn’t they be next in line?”
He chuckled.
“Little chance of that ever happening. I’m not exactly the fatherly type. Which is why I’ll do what I must to protect him, the
same as you would do for your sister.”
“Exactly. I
know just what I’m capable of and just how far I’d go, which is why I won’t
dare let you out of my sight.”
“If I promise
to do what is best for her, will that put you at ease?”
“No,” she
stated with finality. “You forget, I know firsthand just how little your
promise is worth.”
His jaw tensed. “You never gave
me the chance to prove myself.” He spoke with a derisive chill in his tone.
