A Gypsy's Love 3 Vincent & Jessica
Sophia S. Sterling
- With
- utterly
- nothing,
- but
- free
- time
- on
- his
- hands,
- Lord
- Vincent
- Cardwell,
- the
- eighth
- Duke
- of
- Kent,
- had
- resolved
- to
- leave
- well
- enough
- alone
- concerning
- any
- matters
- of
- the
- heart.
- As
- he
- observed
- his
- best
- friend
- Lord
- Jeffery
- Lumley,
- the
- twelfth
- Earl
- of
- Scarborough
- and
- Jeffery’s
- cousin,
- Lord
- Alex
- Lumley
- pine
- for
- women
- was
- a
- sad
- and
- laughable
- case.
- Thinking
- that
- his
- two
- close
- companions
- would
- die
- forlorn
- and
- brooding,
- to
- see
- the
- reason
- behind
- their
- nauseating
- fixation
- come
- forth
- one
- after
- the
- other.
By
- their
- turn
- of
- event,
- Lord
- Cardwell
- was
- beyond
- amazed
- that
- his
- fate
- altered
- as
- theirs
- did.
- Undoubtedly,
- not
- far
- from
- his
- mind,
- Lord
- Cardwell
- had
- his
- heart
- tucked
- away
- for
- someone,
- he
- thought
- never
- to
- encounter
- ever
- again.
- Now
- years
- later,
- he
- is
- compelled
- to
- confront
- his
- fears
- of
- rejection
- or
- the
- possibility
- of
- hope
- of
- having
- HER.
Living
- in
- incognito
- for
- so
- many
- years
- was
- not
- an
- easy
- task.
- But
- residing
- with
- the
- new
- family
- she
- came
- to
- love,
- and
- trust
- gave
- Lady
- Jessica
- Mancini,
- peace
- of
- mind
- for
- her
- and
- her
- daughter.
- Although
- with
- that,
- one
- probability
- of
- her
- daughter’s
- father
- kin
- coming
- into
- their
- life
- and
- snatching
- her
- baby
- girl,
- was
- always
- a
- real
- prospect.
- And
- even
- more
- so,
- as
- Lady
- Mancini
- encounters
- an
- exasperating,
- peculiar,
- passionate
- individual
- from
- her
- youth.
- That
- made
- her
- almost
- capitulate
- to
- his
- will.
- Fearing
- the
- worst,
- Lady
- Mancini
- would
- do
- anything
- to
- safeguard
- her
- daughter
- from
- her
- father’s
- family.
- Even
- if
- it
- meant
- running
- away
- from
- the
- only
- family
- and
- man,
- she
- might
- ever love.
