Lady Hope And The Duke Of Darkness: The Baxendale Sisters Book 3 - Plot & Excerpts
He didn’t take to the woman, thought her sour-faced, but he would not rush to judge her. Mrs. Crisp seemed competent to steer Sophie safely through her first introduction to society, with all that entailed. Sophie’s pitiful amount of baggage arrived, and she and the widow were eased into his household. For the next week, Daniel left matters to his staff and saw the ladies only when he dined at home. On those evenings, he and Sophie talked late into the evening. There was an easy, light-hearted flow of discourse between them after Mrs. Crisp went to bed, for that lady’s contribution to the conversation was to point out the vilest and most heart-wrenching items she’d found in the morning’s newspaper. He and Sophie agreed on many things and enjoyed debate on many others. Sophie’s keen interest in political affairs was admirable, although somewhat distorted by her reliance on the broadsheets. In this she reminded him of Hope, which had made him smile and then grow alarmed at how often Hope entered his thoughts.
