Anna looked out over the lawn of the Greenwood household and thought not for the first time that this was a waste of time. She knew why her mother had wanted her to attend. She desperately wanted Anna to find a match, but it was not to be. It never would be. After her kiss a few nights before, she knew there would never be another man who would even be able to compare to Daniel. She had been kissed before. But not one of her suitors had been able to take her mind along with her. It had been the first time in her life she had lost complete control. Oh, she had lost her head over Dewhurst when he promised her romance and plotted to kill her cousin. But there had never been a time she had been so willing to allow a man to compromise her.

She closed her eyes and leaned her forehead against the cool window pane. It had been a long few days readying for the trip. The one ball she had attended before their departure had been exquisite torture. That just would not do. She could not lose her composure around him again. It was bad enough that he knew she was attracted to him. No woman kissed a man the way she had if she was not. She had to learn to control herself around him. She had dreaded this trip, but maybe it was a good thing. Now she could definitely use the time away from her nemesis to regroup. Once she could keep herself controlled around him, she could ferret out what was going on with him. Inquiries to Sebastian had definitely gotten her nowhere. In fact, he had warned her away from Daniel. Decidedly odd.

She opened her eyes and looked down at the next carriage that rolled into view. She knew Lady Adelaide had planned to attend, but when the door opened, it was not the woman she saw, but rather her son.

Oh, Lord in heaven. What had she done to deserve this? She watched as he looked at the surroundings, taking in the hustle and bustle. Then, as if he knew exactly where she was, he looked up at her window. She stilled, her whole body going hot under his gaze. Her breasts ached, her body yearned. The smile that curled his lips was just a little too self-satisfied for her tastes. How could he see how he affected her?

With a jaunty salute, he turned to help his mother down from the carriage. Needing to regroup, she moved away. What had she been thinking to stand there and stare at him as if she were some mooncalf in love? And just what the devil was he doing at this party? It was definitely not his type of thing. Tame by his standards. Did it have to do with the mysterious stabbing? What if he owed someone money…could he be forced to hide in the country?

She rolled the idea over in her mind but got nowhere.
