I& #39;m home alone, and have off tomorrow. I think it is time for another #bHeath21 read.

Tonight& #39;s selection is Between The Devil & Desire which I took on vacation but didn& #39;t read.
This. Line.
"Yet, he was beautiful in a rugged sort of way, like the manner in which a jagged coastline at dawn could steal one& #39;s breath with its magnificence."

Why hello Jack Dodger. #bHeath21
Also, Jack is the best name for love interests. I& #39;m not taking questions at this time. #bHeath21

Ah, a widowed Duchess who& #39;s dead husband did not enjoy kissing. This is going to be great, and I& #39;m only two pages in. #bHeath21
Olivia and Jack Dodger are both at the reading of her husband& #39;s will. And Jack has no idea why he is there. And gasp he uses LANGUAGE. #bHeath21
and oh shit. for some unknown reason Jack Dodger is now the guardian of Olivia and her 5 year old son, until her son reaches majority or she weds again. And if he fulfills this duty, Jack will receive something of "immeasurable worth." #bHeath21
Olivia asks if he wants tea.
"I was thinking whiskey, gin, rum. All three if you have them." #bHeath21
hooey, Jack calls Olivia "duchess" sneeringly but I think that will turn into a little something more endearing as this story goes on. #bHeath21
CW: child sexual assualt (in the past).

jack fears he received this inheritance because the dead Duke might have been the man who Jack& #39;s mother sold him too when he was five (and abused him, causing Jack to run away the next day to the streets). #bheath21
