Revenge of the Wallflowers #55
She Fears the Ultimate Revenge
When Lady Alice Lister’s first season ended in gunfire, she expected to be the subject of some rather unkind remarks. And sideways glances. And perhaps a gentleman or two tripping in their haste to flee her presence.
When her second season ended in the sort of misery that could only be created by the cruel efforts of three wealthy titled young men determined to make her the most ridiculed and least sought-after dance partner in the history of London society, the thought of revenge certainly came to mind, though the how and where were less certain when she dissolved into tears at the very thought of ever returning to London again.
However, when her third season offered her the opportunity to gain her independence and a small fortune simply by her attendance at that season’s most important events, she could not refuse. And should the opportunity to finally ensure those who made her first two seasons a misery receive their comeuppance it behooves a lady to give careful and sober thought to the idea of revenge. After all, one must have something to occupy one’s time between dress fittings, carriage rides, and balls at Almack’s.
To ensure success, she needed an accomplice. However, under no circumstances did she plan to choose an accomplice to whom she was even mildly attracted, especially not a criminally handsome, kind, brilliant horticulturist with big blue eyes, and…where were we?
Sinjin Perriton has survived years of dealing with London society by not venturing forth into the mad whirl of the ton.
His horticultural studies and his love of reading tales of daring have kept him safe, happy, and at home in his vast orangery. His shy nature has made his years’ long correspondence with Lady Alice Lister the closest and most precious friendship of his life. When she asks his help in her plotted vengeance, he readily agrees, too readily. Close proximity to a lady bent on the destruction of those who have wronged her might well be the death of him. Revenge comes at a price that Sinjin is willing to pay, but will the final cost be his heart?
