“Hal, you can’t shoot him. He married me.”

“Yes, between ruining you and leaving you. Christ, what a mess.”

She laughed bitterly. “Is that what he called it?”

“Father? No, I believe ‘fiasco’ was—”

“No. I was talking about James. Did he call me—our marriage—a mess?”

Her brother looked at her askance. “Izzie, I haven’t seen or heard from James since I visited him in Ireland shortly after your ball. That was months ago.”

Guilt swamped her. James and Henry had always been as close as brothers, and she had driven herself as a wedge between them. A wedge created out of the best intentions, but a wedge nonetheless. “I am so sorry, Henry. He must realize that you had nothing to do with this. If you give him a few weeks to come to his senses and then go to London, I am certain . . .” There was that odd look on Henry’s face again. “What?”

“James isn’t in London. Once Father’s messenger caught up with me, I went straight there to look for him. I asked around at all our usual haunts. No one has seen him. It is possible he has gone to ground at one of his estates, but . . .”

“But you don’t think so,” Isabella finished.

Her brother nodded, his expression grim. “It seems likely he has left England entirely. He is gone, Izzie, really gone, and I don’t think he intends to return.”
