❤️ From Sunday:
Nonetheless, I reply, “Sure, why not?” as if I’m doing him a favor. When he winces, I smirk. I know how to play the game, until it’s not a game anymore.

❤️ From Monday:
“You are the only person I’ve ever met who would opine thus. Everything I said is poles apart from what is purported to be ‘romantic’.” Padraic sighed.
“Only if one considers romance and Romantic to be one and the same…I do not.” Raff snorted.

📚 From Sunday’s snippet:
“Oh, am I dreaming?” Padraic may have been musing to himself, but Raff wasn’t about to pass up the chance to learn what he now had to know. He would be asylum bound by morn, if matters progressed apace.

“Now, what am I going to do with you…?” The rogue mused, lifting a forefinger to his lips in a parody of deep thought, as he drew to a halt before Padraic. The threat inherent in that phrase thrilled down the Duke’s spine, which was oh, so wrong; he should be plotting his escape or…or weaving the perfect words to ensure his prompt release. Yes, that was it.
“I-is that a rhetorical question?”

Sunday’s Snippet: Totally fucked was total and fucked, and whether the level of fuckedness was multiplied by two or ten didn’t matter.
📚 Monday’s Snippet:
“Sure,” Robert said easily. “I’m not the heroic type.”
“Not you,” Mable agreed. “Not being heroic is how you got shot in the Phillippines.”
“Everybody got shot, so that doesn’t count.” Robert shrugged into his coat, took his hat, and limped toward the front door. “Anyway, it was my leg that got shot, not my Philippines. My Philippines still work fine.”

📚 Snippet:
Jonty giggled. “You do make me feel like I’m a character in some adventure of old. You know the sort of thing, days when knights were bold and maidens were simpering.”
