Status Updates From Lord Garson’s Bride (Dashin...

Two of the most melodramatic MCs ever

“What can I do? I hate to think of you being unhappy.” She dredged up the courage to speak the truth. “You could love me back.” In all this vile, agonizing morning, the vilest, most agonizing moment was this, when his face inexorably closed against her. “That’s not possible.”
😩😩

Yesssss, now it’s getting interesting.

“Oh, grow a backbone, Jane Norris.”

Oh, please yes, do us a favour and stiffen that spine. 😒

Yeeeesh, it’s not going well for them, is it? 🙄🙄🙄

She’d waited ten years to seek the life she wanted. But she’d left it too late.
Too late. Surely the saddest words in the language.

Oh, she is such an idiot!

Oh, she is such an idiot!

Wait wha … there is time skip ... come on! Grovel already and get to the HEA.

".... without generosity and openness, the joy they'd found … had swiftly shrivelled away.."

Such a true sentence.

Sigh … I know this is probably not PC but I like to see a little jealously in my hero's .... but not too much. I hope Lord Garson is listening.

Jealous blockhead alert - where did I put my Frying Pan of Doom(TM)?

".... he cringed as he admitted he had planned to buy a workhorse, and instead found himself in charge of Thoroughbred."

Yes, you should cringe not the least for STILL thinking of your wife as a thing to be managed, and a horse no less - aka metaphors which irk.

Best wedding night scene ever - an not in a prurient way either. Who would have thought?

This has some of my favourite tropes in it. Looking forward to that ugly duckling romance.

Geez, this is making me sad. Weddings are supposed to be joyous occasions. Lord Garson is being a right royal tool. You've got some work to do, my man...and a whole book to do it in. Snap to it.
