Cecilia Grant - [Blackshear Family 03] - Plot & Excerpts
Kersey leaned into the doorway long enough to communicate this fact, then swung away, unbuttoning his topcoat as he headed for his own chambers across the hall. Kate was Nick’s first thought. She hadn’t strayed far from his thoughts all morning, to say nothing of the part she’d played there over a largely sleepless night. Hang what was left of his pride: he’d slaked his lusts to images of her; he’d lain awake wondering whether they’d compromised their relationship beyond repair; he’d remembered every compromising thing they’d done and he’d roused up a new set of lusts and slaked them all over again. It couldn’t be her downstairs, though—part of his brain was awake enough to recognize this—because Kersey knew her by sight. He wouldn’t have announced her as merely “a lady.” The same reasoning ruled out Mrs. Simcox, who would have been his second guess, because Kersey was well acquainted with the sight of her, too. Nick pushed up from his desk and caught his coat on the way out.
