Daniel Vincent Humphrey has never been entirely comfortable. 

His family loves him, but he's very aware that the rest of the world only tolerates his slow, stuttered speech. When a baby girl appears on his doorstep one evening, his carefully constructed life begins to fray at the edges, and he vows to uncover her true identity and return his life to normal. To make matters worse, the ever-charming Thomas Thorne has ingratiated himself into the Humphrey family, leaving Vincent almost permanently off-kilter. And the most unsettling thought of all: perhaps he won't want either to leave.

This is the 2nd book of the Humphrey Chronicles. It will make much more sense if you read Husband Wanted first!

Desire and Deceit [bxb] by RubyWooEd
33 parts Ongoing Mature
Alvin Frazier, an illegitimate son recently taken in by his Baron grandfather, is at the very last of the English nobility. He has no dreams or expectations of ever making a suitable match, much less a love match. All he has is his critical outlook on life and his love for painting, and coming from a background of poverty, he sincerely wants nothing more. It only took the most uneventful ball of the season to change his life forever. When the most eligible catch of the ton knocks on his door, asking for his hand, he finds the gentleman just a little bit suspicious. Being a widow of over five years, Duke Presley did not consider himself eager to marry again. That was, until his eyes set upon a certain young man loitering around in a dead-boring ball, stuck to the walls. An enquiry was made, a letter was written, and Lord Presley finds himself at Baron Frazier's doorstep, asking for his grandson's hand in marriage. He expected a ready and most grateful acceptance but is thoroughly shocked to be met with resistance. Not to ever be denied however, he sets out to charm the object of all his desires. And what Lord Presley wants, he gets. And so, begins a tedious and apprehensive period of courtship filled with barely contained lust and heated glances. But what should have been easily the most famous love match of the season, may turn into a farce, especially when one of the two parties is holding a grave secret. Or where Alvin's fate is sealed with a single glance from Lord Presley.

It was gradual. Lucas had always been there, but it was always as his brother's friend, not his own. Not really. When they began hanging out more, Caleb began realising there was a lot he never knew about the boy, and he began wanting to learn everything he could about him. With his brother's both having moved away for school, Caleb had the chance to learn more about Lucas than ever before. He didn't stop to think that that goes both ways, but maybe that's just what he needed. Maybe the love he sought was right there in front if him. --- Find out how Caleb slowly falls into to despair and love. Is that not an oxymoron? Which emotion is stronger? Seriously, it's a slow burn. Slow is in the title. *This is a bxb that deals with sensitive themes and mature subjects. Take care.*
