Not Proper Enough (A Reforming The Scoundrels Romance) - Plot & Excerpts
No. 25 Upper Brook Street. “THIS ISN’T BOUVERIE.” “No. It’s not.” Fox dug the key from his pocket but kept his other hand at Eugenia’s back. As if that would keep her from changing her mind. She touched the numbers painted on the wall beside the door. He closed his fingers around the key. “The Dukes of Camber own the whole of this street and the six or seven surrounding streets. Eight years ago, the yearly lease came up here, and rather than negotiate with another tenant, I took this house myself.” “For your bachelor quarters.” “For an escape from Bouverie.” “Why?” “Bouverie reminds me too much of my father.” He put the key in the lock. “Every time I step foot in the place, I feel the weight of centuries of expectations.” He opened the door and held it open for her. “At times, it’s more than I care to deal with.” His butler, Golde, kept candles burning in the chandelier in the entrance to the town house, so the foyer was softly lit. Exactly as he preferred.
