In all his life, Julian couldn’t think of anything he liked better than the feel of Miss Callaghan’s hand on his. Especially when she was gazing at him with such warmth. His heart pounded in his chest, pushing him to press his suit. Faint heart never won fair lady, after all.

Yet beneath the rushing pulse and the blazing heat that drew him nearer, Julian’s rational side prevailed. Miss Callaghan had made her feelings clear, and if she were to change them, it wouldn’t be because he harangued her into accepting his suit.

“Friends” was not a terrible place to start. Quite the opposite, in fact. Julian couldn’t help but preen at the thought of counting this dear lady as his friend, for though their acquaintance was new, the more he came to know her, the more he admired her. The instincts that had established him in his profession were the same ones that surged to the forefront now, reminding him that caution led to greater long-term rewards, and Julian was quite ready to see what dividends this friendship might supply.

“As it is to be a quiet night at home, would you join me for some reading?” he asked. “We can have Maggie bring up a tea tray, and we can relax on the sofa whilst enjoying each other’s company.”

Miss Callaghan’s eyes warmed, giving away the pleasure she felt at that proposition, though she answered with a disinterested wave of her hand. “I suppose that might be an acceptable way to pass the evening.”

Quite acceptable, indeed.
