John Parker-Roth cannot believe that
marriage is necessary for his happiness. He would far rather pursue his
interest in horticulture, but if one day he should find a female who shared
his passion for flowers--a level-headed, calm sort of female--he might
reconsider. Certainly the lovely young woman who has just tumbled into his
lap will not do, as she possesses neither of these admirable qualities. Yet
Miss Margaret Peterson does have many things
in her favor. To begin with, she is a true English rose, blushing a
delectable pink. And she is not entirely clothed. Her full mouth begs to be
kissed. If only she would not wriggle so…oh, dear. He cannot ignore the
sudden vision of her in his bed, but he must.
What?
Is Meg actually asking him to kiss her? Well, well, well. John
Parker-Roth is a gentleman, first and foremost. And he cannot turn
down a lady’s request…
Meg contented herself with the fiercest
glare she could manage. “At the risk of repeating myself, Mr. Parker-Roth--go
away!”
“And at the risk of repeating myself,
Miss Peterson, no. I am not leaving you alone in this garden.”
She really, really would like to kick
him.
“Sir, you are not my keeper--”
“Bloody hell, woman.” Mr. Parker-Roth
transferred his grip to her shoulders--he looked as though he would have
preferred to put his hands around her neck. “Someone needs to be your damn
keeper and I don’t see a blasted queue forming for that honor.”
“I do not need a kee--mphft.”
The annoying man had covered her mouth
with his own.
