Excerpt:


A short time later, Finlay found himself outside the chamber he was sharing with Blair. Anticipation coursed through his veins. Inserting the key into the lock, he turned the handle and pushed open the door to see her sitting at the dressing table wearing only her shift and brushing her long golden hair.

Was she humming? He couldn’t place the tune, but it was pleasant. Quietly pulling the door closed behind him, he locked it and moved toward her. Reaching out, he touched her shoulder. She flinched then turned, but when she saw it was him, she smiled.

“Ye smell nice.”

“Lemons.”

“Hmm,” he said as he lifted a strand of her wet hair and brought it up to his nose.

“They have molded soap. It smelled of lemons.” Her eyes lit with a childlike amusement.

“Do ye like it?”

“Aye. I didnae ken that it could be put in such an easy form.”

“I’ll keep ye supplied in it, if it pleases ye.”

“I’ll bathe before they bring the meal.” Before he could push her too fast, he hurried over to the tub, where he undressed and climbed in.

Blair called over her shoulder, “I hope ’tis no’ too cold for ye.”

“Nae, ’tis fine.” Truly, it had chilled, but he welcomed the cool, because it gave a slight relief to the part of him that had sprung to life upon being near his wife.

She rose and meandered toward the bed, her hips swaying through a material he noticed was quite thin. The cold water’s effects dulled as he again started to yearn for the lass as she sat lazily on the bed. “Do ye always stay at this inn as well?”

“Nae. I think ’twill have to reevaluate our route for future trips. I feel like a negligent husband making ye sleep in some of the places we have.”

“The bed does feel soft.” She fell back on it and spread her arms out, sliding her fingertips over the bedding.

Upon climbing out of the tub, he started for his wife, who had tempted him by laying out like an offering on a tray at English teatime. Hell, he’d lost his mind. She had her eyes closed, peace and contentment on her face.

He was stopped by a knock on the door.
