Fate Is A Stranger: Regency Romance - Plot & Excerpts
"Not as well as you might think, Miss Durbin," replied Lord Souten, "considering his sister is my step-mother. But then sometimes characters clash. On my part, at least, I don’t approve of his grace's style of living. "I have noticed his interest in you, Miss Durbin, and it’s quite obvious to everybody that this sojourn was made in your honor. I must warn you, for the duke has a very bad reputation. His intentions toward you are anything but honorable." Violet forced herself not to shake her head at such self-serving words. Whatever problems Lord Souten had with the duke were no concern of hers. She did not know Lord Souten well enough that she could consider or give weight to his opinion of the duke so instead she disregarded it. She didn't want to hear anything disparaging about the duke, particularly coming from this strange man who had an unhealthy interest in her himself. It was not his place to warn her against the duke. He had but the slightest acquaintance with her, and not enough to be an adviser.
