Chapter 6

Ginny donned another of her new gowns to look her best when callers came for afternoon tea. This one was a pale peach gown trimmed at the collar and sleeves with ivory lace. Her hair was done up once more, but this time in a less intricate bun and several wisps of her hair were loosely curled along her brow and the nape of her neck. She finished the effect with small, teardrop pearl earrings and simple string of pearls around her throat.

Jason, Edward and Lady Frances were to join them along with several family friends and some new acquaintances, including Lord Simon de la Londe. Oh, dear. Would he be safe from Jeremiah’s wrath? It was too late to call off the afternoon tea and her parents had refused to rescind the invitation sent to Lord de la Londe without good reason. She couldn’t very well tell them that her guardian angel had threatened to kill him.

Jeremiah had been angry, but he would never hurt a defenseless man. Would he?

No. He was too honorable.

She was glad they would be a party of about twenty, for the mere thought of having to guard Lord de la Londe and at the same time entertain him was exhausting to her, especially if Jeremiah appeared.

What had happened last night? Why had he become so enraged?

There was so much about Jeremiah that she didn’t know. He’d been her guardian angel since the day she was born, but it had taken her until last night to learn something as simple as his given name.

What was she to do? Her family wanted her to give Lord de la Londe a chance, but she didn’t quite know if she could manage it. Was it fair to give him hope when her heart responded to another, even if that other was behaving like a celestial ass at the moment? She was no fickle maid to allow her attentions to flit from beau to beau, although Jeremiah hardly counted as a beau.

He was a brawny hunk of dangerous angel that no one in their right mind would ever dare trifle with. Had he been enraged enough to give up the idea of ever kissing her? Or worse, what if he decided to abandon her?

Could she make a life with Lord de la Londe instead?

She shook to attention as their guests began to arrive and she heard Lord de la Londe’s voice in the entry hall. One of several voices. Having others around to take up the slack in their conversation was a relief.

“Lady Eugeeenia, you have a lovely home,” Lord de la Londe said as she approached to greet him. He bowed over her outstretched hand as any gentleman who was trained in chivalry would do, but his gaze
