After they make love for the first time, Sarah and Jeffrey sleep, but when Sarah wakes during the night, she does some exploring....
Just as my fingertips reached the edge of his covering, my mate's
hand enveloped mine. I jerked my head up to look at him.
He smiled at me and his eyes darkened with passion. “Feeling
bold, my little wife?”
“Um, uh….” Embarrassment scorched across my face. I tugged
in an effort to free myself from his grip, but he would not allow it.
“I am going to take that as a yes.” He held my wandering
fingers in his then laid them flat against his navel. With my hand sandwiched
between the muscled flesh of my husband’s stomach and the warmth of his palm, Jeffrey steered it beneath
the sheet into the thatch of thick hair surrounding his manhood.
Becoming Lady Amherst Blurb:
When Miss Sarah McLean causes a scandal in Boston, her father takes her to London in search of a husband.
At her first party, Sarah insults Lord Amherst who takes her over his knee to spank some manners into her. When his actions come to light, Sarah's father offers him a choice: Marry Sarah or send her back to America where she has no prospects for a husband.
Intrigued by the spirited Yankee Girl, Lord Amherst proposes.
Despite the circumstances of their marriage, Sarah and Jeffrey form a bond and appear headed for a bright future.
That is, until Sarah pretends to be someone she's not.
Well a girl just has to explore - she has the legal right after all!
