Love In the East

When Shona became secretary to the Marquis of Chi worth, all she was told was that they were going abroad so that he could write a book. She never suspected the dark secret in his heart or the terrible thing he meant to do. As they travelled on, she learned more about the tragedy that drove him, and she faced the fact that she was falling love with a man whose heart was in the grave. Haunted by memories of his dead wife, the Marquis tried to shut out the possibility of a new love. But love would not be denied. First in Greece and then on the magical island of Cyprus, they finally confronted their feelings. But was it too late? Could the Marquis free himself from the past and allow Shona to take him towards
the future.

    👍Worth reading

    “I have written articles on hunting - yes, killing innocent animals for sport. How "noble"...😡

    “Is not a woman duty bound to obey her lord and master?” he asked. - horseshit, ridiculous!

    “When a girl falls in love with a man, she is in his power. Most men are so unimpressive that it would be a foolhardy girl who would fall into their power if she could avoid it.” 😂

    “Yes, Charles can be extremely stupid when it is necessary,” said Madame Rivalier. She could not resist adding, with wifely frankness, “also at other times when it is most inconvenient.” 🎵😂😂😂😂

    “I should shoot you down like a dog – it is what you deserve,” he growled. “But it would be too good for you. I am taking you back to England. You will answer to the law for murder.” - dogs are loyal, loving and intelligent. Far more worthy than most people...
