The Scoundrel Takes A Bride: A Regency Rogues Novel (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Mouse exclaimed around a bite of stew. “You poked him just like one of those thugs Miss May pays to beat up customers when they won’t let loose of their money.” Confused, Nicholas and Singh stared at Mouse as they sat around the scrubbed kitchen table. The boy had not uttered a word during the hansom ride from the rookery to the Albany, nor at any time since they’d arrived home, not until that moment. “Perhaps young Mouse does not know what he is saying?” Singh offered, ladling more stew into the youth’s bowl. Mouse’s gaze followed the transfer of carrot chunks, potatoes, onions, and beef, all swimming in thick gravy, with an expression of awe and greedy anticipation. Nicholas swallowed his spoonful of stew, flavored with the faint bite of Singh’s curry spice, and pushed his bowl away. “He is speaking of you, Singh.” “And perhaps sahib is confused as well?” Singh’s perplexed brown gaze fastened on Nicholas’s face, his dark eyebrows lifted in inquiry.
