The Duke's Alliance Book Two: A Dangerous Husband - Plot & Excerpts
She was astonished that he'd managed to get dressed without awakening her. She stretched luxuriously and came to the conclusion that married life suited her very well despite the disadvantages of having a husband with a short temper and a tendency to treat her like one of his junior officers.

Her maid vanished to return with the tray immediately. 'Lottie, how have you and Slater arranged things so you don't clash?' The girl grinned.
