Elizabeth Hoyt Quote

He was a terrible, evil man, and most likely mad to boot. She knew that..As if he could hear her thoughts, his head turned and his eyes met hers.She should've ducked before he could see her. That would've been the sensible thing to do- the thing to do. Instead she lifted her chin and stared back as if she were equal to a duke.Without acknowledging the gentleman still talking to him, the duke pivoted and walked toward her.Through that crowded ballroom, as if nothing stood between him and her. And all those people parted as if he were a ship cleaving the waves. Why shouldn't they? He was the Duke of Montgomery. Nothing stood in his way. He made sure of that.He made her side and took her hand and simply said, Come.
