An Improper Proposal (The Distinguished Rogues Book 6) - Plot & Excerpts
Her visit to her father that day had been horrible and had broken her heart. When she’d first spoken, he’d looked at her blankly and Iris had needed to remind him of her name. He’d shrugged off the incident but upon her leaving, he’d looked at her so strangely again and only pressed a courtly kiss to her hand rather than his usual buss to her cheek. She rapped the knocker and almost fell inside as Higgins admitted her. “Miss Hedley, are you all right?” She nodded, keen to hide her distress from the servant. “Simply exhausted after my long walk.” Higgins knew where she went but they never spoke of her destination. Today he seemed troubled. “You should not go so far on foot next time.” She had no choice but to keep up the ruse. Esme’s butler was a kind man and she liked him very much, but she didn’t want to inconvenience the staff, and she could not change the method of her travel without being noticed by Talbot.
