As fate would have it, the tragedy introduced David to the nanny who had been caring for the girl and her siblings. Elligible young men Guy and Max find themselves out of their depth when they get inolved with the daughter of one of Britain’s richest, but most mysterious, men.His 1st 4 novels were word-heavy, but you never felt bored reading or thought that any parts of the story were meandering or redundant. Well, what I was wondering was—’ He broke off at the approach of the steward and went up in my estimation by demanding a large Jack Daniels.
