The Persuasion Of Miss Jane Brody - Plot & Excerpts
Jane was still upstairs assisting her sister with her hair combs. She heard a masculine voice and assumed the coachman’s offsider had come to the door to inform them of the carriage’s arrival. She immediately collected her reticule. “Anna, come downstairs as soon as you’re ready. I’ll tell his lordship’s man to wait.” She hurried down the staircase only to halt halfway down the last flight of stairs, pinned by the arrested look on Lord Dalton’s face as he stood in the hallway below looking up at her. Feeling her face heat up, she knew a pink blush was spreading across her cheeks. This evening she had allowed her sister to dress her hair in an elaborate upswept Grecian knot from which her golden hair curled down to dance around her neck. “Miss Brody, good evening. I trust we are not too early. May I complement you. You are looking quite spectacular. That shade of pink suits you very well. Does it not, Elizabeth?” He half turned revealing his slight sister in his shadow.
