To Marry A Matchmaker (Historical Romance) - Plot & Excerpts
Her level gaze met his. She was serious. They both knew all it had been was a kiss, a kiss that no one saw or commented on. True, it had nearly gone much further, but he’d never forced a woman and wasn’t about to start with Henri. ‘I have kissed other women without them demanding marriage.’ ‘I wanted to make sure.’ Her deep blue eyes were guileless. She made a little gesture with her hand and nearly sent the greenery tumbling out of the trug. She bent to retrieve them and her bonnet slipped forwards, shielding her face from view. ‘It is best that everyone understands and no one feels obligations or expectations.’ ‘I know where the boundaries lie.’ Robert stared at the crown of her bonnet. What he felt for Henri was far removed from duty. Passion. Desire. A longing to be with her. But not duty. And passion alone was a good enough reason to be with her. In many ways, Henrietta Thorndike was more naïve than Sophie. At least Sophie did not believe that a simple kiss would lead automatically to a declaration of intent.
