The Unexpected Marriage Of Gabriel Stone (Lords Of Disgrace) - Plot & Excerpts
‘You look ravishing, you’ll bring Gabriel to his knees, every man in the place, including the vicar, will want to run off with you and all the ladies will be green with envy over your gown.’ If the laugh that escaped her was shaky it did release some of the tension, which was presumably why Alex was laying on the flattery with a trowel. ‘Thank you,’ Caroline said, answering the intent, not the words. ‘Off we go then.’ Alex set off at a slow walk for the head of the stairs, then paused for her to lift the hem of her skirt a little and get a grip on the spray of cream-and-pink roses and ferns she carried. At the foot of the great sweep of staircase the household staff were arrayed in formal ranks and, as she came down the final curve, Caroline could see heads turning in the drawing room. Goodness knew what strings Cris and Alex had pulled, what wiles Tess and Tamsyn had employed, to get such a number of guests there. And such influential ones, too.
