A Kiss for the Ages

Time, tide, and temptation wait for no man--or woman!

Lysander, Earl of Montmarche, really ought to re-marry, if for no other reason than that he’s completely flummoxed by his rambunctious, outspoken young daughter. He surely owes the girl and his frazzled nerves the benefit of a step-mama’s steadying presence. That he’s a bit lonely and also flummoxed by life in general is of no moment whatsoever.

Daphne, Lady Cargill, really has no interest in re-marrying, much less in taking on the challenges of being a step-mama. Long ago, she herself was rambunctious and quite out-spoken, but she put all that aside to become the dignified wife and mother society expected her to be. Daphne is nonetheless tempted by Lysander’s gravitas and quiet humor, and his kisses are nigh irresistible.

Will they make the safe and sensible choices expected of prudent, mature adults, or muster their courage for one more chance at love?
