Cat and Mouse
A Regency Sex Comedy
When
his adorable neighbor Lucy Widden came upon him in his youth during a tryst
with a willing milkmaid in a local hayfield, Lord Alistair Abingdon knew she
would never forgive him. And he’d been right. Now many years later, he has
returned home, and is determined to win Lucy for himself. He just isn’t sure
how to go about it. He’d been home for several weeks and she hadn’t paid him a
single visit. He was aware that she would soon be going to London for the Season.
She would have to talk to him there, wouldn’t she?
But
his plans are all thrown awry when Lucy is thrown from her horse, and Lucy’s
father Sir Widden sends for him with a very special request. Marry Lucy immediately. Because Lucy has
apparently lost not only her memory in the fall, but something else every
debutante who wished to make an advantageous match needed. Her hymen. The bumpy
ride on her spooked horse had cost her the ability to proclaim herself a true
virgin.
If
someone had handed him everything he had ever wanted on a silver platter
Alistair could not have been more thrilled. Lucy was going to be his. But because
he was well aware of Lucy’s mischievous spirit, he did not for an instant
believe that she had lost her memory. And that could only mean one thing. Lucy
wanted him and did not know how to say so. As for the other thing, well, time
would tell. And he looked forward to finding out.
Lucy
Widden had grown up whilst Alistair, the love of her life, the man she fully
intended to marry at all costs was away. When he returns, but does not pay her so
much as a courtesy call, she realizes she needs to find a way to attract his
attention.
Her
newly appointed maid, a former performer on Drury Lane inspires the comedy of
errors, but Lucy, unaware that Alistair can see right through her theatrics gets
what she wants, and a whole lot more. Alistair is not only willing to marry
her, but is determined to make the woman he loves admit that this whole thing
has merely been a farce. And he will do so in his own way.
By slowly
seducing his lovely very spirited new wife.
