When faced with a choice, Lord Henry Clarke decided to become a famous and accomplished archaeologist rather than a happily married man to the woman of his heart. Now, at the age of one-and-forty, he lives a comfortable life as a bachelor, working as a professor at the University of London and paying regular visits to his two devoted lovers. His life takes an abrupt turn, when his childless older brother commits suicide, making him the next Duke of Grantchester. Yet that's a minor obstacle compared to the fact that he'll also have to marry to keep the money in the family... Miss Sabrina Hartley has New York at her feet... and perhaps all of America! But only one person knows who's behind the pseudonym that pens the most daring and bestselling erotic novels. When, at the age of one-and-thirty, she sees her younger cousin get married, she decides to turn the fiction of her stories into reality. However, her plans are soon thwarted by a series of telegrams from England - in order to keep half of her vast fortune, Sabrina must marry the current Duke of Grantchester as a direct result of an old agreement between their late fathers, Mr Hartley and Lord Clarke. Despite her best friend's warnings, Sabrina somewhat naively sets off to see if she can be happy in England... ...only to discover to her dismay that Henry is a cold and starchy man, his family reject her out of hand, and even the weather is dreadful almost every day! Will she find a way to her husband's heart or will she fulfill her darkest and most forbidden fantasies in the secret embrace of someone else?Terminé

"I think I'm madly, passionately, entirely, and ardently in love with you, my love," Lady Veroniqué breathed, her lips brushing against the thick sewn flesh ones of the monster's. Her palm hovered lightly above his muscled chest, and she felt heat radiate off of him in waves, engulfing her form completely. His hand, mighty and thick, brushed against her back, shaking and careful, desperately wanting to touch her. He grunted low, and her breath hitched, her eyes half closed. ༄ 𝘼 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙨𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙖 𝙢𝙖𝙣-𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙧.
