The Haunting of a Duke Quotes

“Just as Emme neared the main staircase, as she could see the intricate carving of the banisters, a noise from behind her made her thundering heart skip.

Someone was coming, and her wits fled her entirely.”

He wanted to lose himself inside her, to thrust into her moist heat again and again,”
