Stephanie Laurens Quote

If I'd made it to the back parlor, I'd have been safe.Straightening, Vane met her gaze. Safe from what? There's a daybed there, too.Her gaze trapped in his, Patience tried hard not to let the likely outcomes take shape in her mind. Determinedly, she blotted out all thought of what might have transpired had Angela not arrived as she had. If she thought too much of that, she'd very likely throttle Angela, too. The ranks of her potential victims were growing by the hour.Anyway... -Vane's gaze flicked to Angela and Mrs. Chadwick. He stooped slightly; Patience felt the tug as he worked the knotted scarf free- you said you were bored. The knot gave, and he straightened. His lips curved, too knowingly. One brown brow arched, subtly wicked. Isn't that what usually distracts ladies?He knew very well what ladies found most distracting- the look in his eyes, the sensual curve of his lips said as much, screamed as much.
