The Earl's Complete Surrender (2016) - Plot & Excerpts

What then of the conversations they’d shared about Cook’s travels, about Lamarck or any other number of topics they’d discussed since becoming acquainted. Had all of that been pretense on her part?

Clearly, she felt embarrassed by her outburst and by the realization that he’d heard her.
