Whispers of Gunpowder and Lace - Captain John Price
Dearest Gentle Reader, It would seem that the Queen's latest diamond is no ordinary debutante. A beauty with wit enough to match, she has already caught the eye of London's most eligible bachelors - dukes, lords, and even princes. Yet society gasps not at her suitors of title, but at one man bold enough to steal a dance beneath the Queen's gaze and, scandalously, to send orchids to her very door. A soldier. Captain John Price, recently returned to London, strides into the ton with no pedigree and no patience for its games. And yet, he may prove the only man bold enough to win the diamond's heart. Will this Season end in triumph, or ruin? That, dear reader, is a tale I shall delight in telling. Yours most devotedly, Lady Whistledown This fic is intended for 18+ readers only and may contain mature themes, explicit content, and adult situations. Please read at your own discretion.
