| d77d3f3 | Do you know how the tradition of the bridal bouquet toss was formed?" Hugh asked. Sarah shook her head. "Are you asking me because you know, or are you asking me because you want to know?" He ignored her slight sarcasm and said, "Brides are considered to be good luck, and many centuries ago young women who wanted a piece of that luck tried quite literally to get a piece of it by tearing off bits of her gown." "That's barbaric!" Frances excl.. | romance huge-prentice | Julia Quinn | |

Billie rolled her eyes, tipping he read toward Andrew as she said to George, "Don't encourage him." "To be ganged up upon," Andrew went on, "never respected..."

| 3bdfd2f | Mr. Crabtree looked at him for a moment, blinked, nodded, then turned back to Sophie. "Why're you dressed like that?" Sophie looked down and realized with horror that she'd completely forgotten she was wearing men's clothes. Men's clothes so big that she could barely keep the breeches from falling to her feet. "My clothes were wet," she explained, "from the rain." Mr. Crabtree nodded sympathetically. "Quite a storm last night. That's why .. | Julia Quinn | ||

| b2458ed | Benedict!" Damn. He'd nearly made a clean escape. He looked up to see his mother hurrying toward him. She was dressed in some sort of Elizabethan costume. He supposed she was meant to be a character in one of Shakespeare's plays, but for the life of him, he had no idea which. "What can I do for you, Mother?" he asked. "And don't say 'Dance with Hermione Smythe-Smith.' Last time I did that I nearly lost three toes in the process." "I wasn.. | Julia Quinn | ||

His free hand found hers and slowly lifted it into the air. "Most women of my acquaintance would have feigned an injury or disinterest." She looked up into his eyes even though she knew it would leave her breathless. "I haven't the acting skills to feign disinterest," she admitted. The hand at the small of .. | Julia Quinn | ||
| c18bf11 | He took one of her fingers and rubbed it gently against his lips. "I want to see you tomorrow," he said softly. "I want to call on you and see where you live." She said nothing, just held herself steady, trying not to cry. "I want to meet your parents and pet your damned dog," he continued, somewhat unsteadily. "Do you understand what I mean?"

| e7aa814 | Violet pulled a face. "Of course I have great ambition that my children marry well and happily, but I am not the sort who'd marry her daughter off to a seventy-year-old man just because he was a duke!" "Did the dowager countess do that?" Benedict couldn't recall any seventy-year-old dukes making recent trips to the altar. "No," Violet admitted, "but she would. Whereas I--" Benedict bit back a smile as his mother pointed to herself with gr.. | Julia Quinn | ||

Todo era igual. Sophie era la mujer del vestido plateado, la mujer del baile de mascaras. De pronto todo cobro sentido. Solo dos veces en su vida habia sentido esa atraccion inexplicable, casi mistica, por una mujer. Le habia parecido extraordinario encontrar a.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 0732c2f | You shouldn't think of me as your responsibility," she finally said. He gave her a rather superior glance. "I told you I would find you a new position." "But--" "What could there possibly be to discuss?" "Nothing," she grumbled. "Nothing at all." Clearly, it was no use arguing with him just then. "Good." He leaned back contentedly against his pillows. "I'm glad you see it my way." Sophie stood. "I should be going." "To do what?" She.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 5c26d19 | Your plan isn't going to work." He was all innocence. "I have a plan?" "Oh, please," she scoffed. "You're going to try to wear me down in hopes that eventually I'll give in." "I would never dream of it." "I'm sure you dream of quite a bit more," she muttered. -Sophie & Benedict" | Julia Quinn | ||
| 09713e8 | Oh, dear," he blurted out. Sophie gave him an odd look. He didn't blame her. He sounded like a complete idiot. He didn't think he'd uttered the phrase, "Oh, dear," in years. If ever. Hell, he sounded like his mother. "Is something wrong?" Sophie asked. "I just remembered something," he said, rather stupidly, in his opinion. She raised her brows in question. "Something that I'd forgotten," Benedict said. "The things one remembers," s.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| e04cbba | His finger floated across her cheek to her temple, and then from there traced her eyebrow, ruffling the soft hairs as it moved to the bridge of her nose. "So pretty," he said softly, "like a storybook fairy. Sometimes I think you couldn't possibly be real." Her only reply was a quickening of breath. "I think I'm going to kiss you," he whispered. "You think?" "I think I to kiss you," he said, looking as if he couldn't quite believe his.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 1e916ae | She sighed. It was a sad, weary sound, and it nearly broke his heart. "You're very kind to try to help me," she said, "but I have already explored all of those avenues. Besides, I am not your responsibility." "You could be." She looked at him in surprise. In that moment, Benedict knew that he had to have her. There was a connection between them, a strange, inexplicable bond that he'd felt only one other time in his life, with the myster.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 6a7e231 | Sophie, Sophie, Sophie," he groaned, his lips moving frantically along her face until they found her mouth again. "I need you." He pressed his hips hotly against hers. "Do you feel how I need you?" "I need you, too," she whispered. And she did. There was a fire burning within her that had been simmering quietly for years. The sight of him had ignited it anew, and his touch was like kerosene, sending her into a conflagration. His fingers w.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 352cf0f | You're trying to punish me," she said, "because I refused you." "No," he said slowly, considering her words even as he answered. "No, I'm not. I'd like to punish you, and in my current state of mind I'd even go so far as to say you deserve to be punished, but that's not why I'm doing it." "Then why are you?" "It's for your own good." "That's the most condescending, patronizing--" "I'm sure you're right," he allowed, "but nonetheless, i.. | Julia Quinn |
