The Haunting Of Grey Cliffs (1992) - Plot & Excerpts
The thing he had just suggested was inconceivable, preposterous. The very idea quite took my breath away. "Milord," I said, willing my voice to a steadiness I wished to feel and yet could not. "I cannot marry you, a man I have only just met, a total stranger." Edward, Earl of Grey Cliffs, fixed me with those brooding eyes, eyes as black as pitch and revealing just as little. He sat across the small table from me in the private parlor of the inn where I had come in response to his message. "I am not a total stranger, Miss Durant," he pointed out, his deep voice carrying the authority of a peer of the realm. "You will recall that I come to you with the recommendation of the marquis of Carolington." This was true, in a rather roundabout fashion. Actually, the marquis had recommended me to the earl. I had earned a reputation for dealing with boys, especially young scamps who delighted in driving off their governesses. The earl had such a son—Andrew by name—and the earl and I had spent the last hour discussing him and his problems.
