A Wicked Kind of Husband (Longhope Abbey, #1)

by Mia Vincy

“This is a colonization, Das. That woman is colonizing my house. Do you know what that means?” “Years of bloodshed, oppression, and exploitation, perhaps?”

“Do I pay you to disapprove of me, Das?” “No, sir. I provide the disapproval for free.”

Perhaps that is one of life’s tragedies: We are all doomed to make mistakes, regardless of the advice we receive, and we are all doomed to watch those we love ignore our advice in turn.
