Pleasure House Ball: <\/strong>Brenton, Lord Mallory, attends his first courtesan\u2019s ball in ten years to appease his concerned friends, though he\u2019d rather stay home and read to his motherless daughter. Though mortified that Brenton unmasks her at a scandalous ball, Lady Lillian Armstrong doesn\u2019t regret their night together. Book 3 Irresistible Aristocrats books2read.com\/suzilovePHB<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excerpt<\/strong>: For himself, Brent was past caring if he was seen at a courtesan\u2019s ball, even stark naked, but he\u2019d never risk Lillian\u2019s reputation. The only garment within reach in the cupboard they were hiding is was a silk robe covered in pink and purple cabbage roses and with a frilled neckline but, deciding that beggars couldn\u2019t be choosy, he shoved his arms into the sleeves and tied the belt at his waist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lillian clamped two hands over her mouth to stop giggles from escaping, but he gave a what-else-can-I-do<\/em> shrug and pretended his masculinity remained intact, despite the feminine gilding. Thankfully, she seemed composed, which was in direct contrast to his own distress, emotional and physical, at not managing their time together better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Counting backwards from a hundred usually calmed him and had taken the edge of the anger and frustration he\u2019d suffered during the last months of his marriage, so he closed his eyes and focused on counting. One hundred, ninety-nine, ninety-eight, ninety-seven\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Bloody hell,\u2019 Brent yelled. Lillian had wrapped a hand around him just as the wardrobe\u2019s door flew open and four faces peered inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lillian screamed. Brent pushed her firmly behind him and she burrowed behind his broad back and pulled the scarf across her face. He addressed the occupants of the room as if it was an every day occurrence to hide in a cupboard at an orgy. \u2018Hello Browning, and Browning\u2019s guests,\u2019 he said cheerfully. \u2018Having a nice foursome?\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before Lillian had dipped her head, she\u2019d glimpsed the faces of their four onlookers. Faces that showed emotions ranging from utter amusement from their host, Browning, curiosity from his companions. Perhaps for them hiding in a cupboard was normal. The thought made her giggle again and she tried to poke her head out from behind Brent\u2019s silk clad bottom to see what Browning would do, but Brent reached behind him and pushed her head down again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Glad you\u2019re enjoying yourself, Mallory.\u2019 Browning\u2019s amusement sounded in his voice, and she sensed that he was attempting to shift Brent aside so he could get a look at her face. \u2018Didn\u2019t think naked romps were your cup of tea these days, old boy.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
