The Blue Devil (The Regency Matchmaker Series) - Plot & Excerpts
Kathryn was surrounded by a boatload of laughing, chattering schoolgirls, excited by the surprise outing on which the Marquis of Blackshire was taking them. He hadn’t come to visit Jane as he’d said he would, but he was treating the entire school—even the servants—to a night of feasting and music and fireworks at the pleasure garden. Yet pleasure was the last thing Kathryn was feeling. She was terribly frightened, and she had never felt more alone in her life. An entire day had passed with not one word, written or spoken, from Nigel. And he was supposed to have accompanied them to Vauxhall, but at the last moment, Lady Marchman had received word that his arrival would be delayed. He would join them there later, he said; they were to proceed without him. An image of Nigel’s handsome face swept through her mind and she shivered. She clung to the image and allowed it to linger, hoping it would help her keep her growing panic at bay. Lady Marchman and Mary Gant were busy settling the girls in the Vauxhall supper boxes, and Kathryn took the opportunity to jostle herself to the back of the line.
