A Man Without Manners - E-book - ePub

For the last decade, Eugenia Bush has known nothing but crushing loneliness. Widowed at three and twenty, and having recently lost her father, her options in life are dwindling. She's stuck as a governess, bullied by her brother's wife. Eugenia has always been a proper prude, but everything changes when she meets aging bachelor, Captain Anthony Conran. When she agreed to be his companion, she didn't expect him to be domineering, rude, and downright mannerless.
Strangest of all, the captain refuses to show his face. He faces the wall while she reads to him, and he makes the most indecorous remarks. Despite his uncouth behavior, Eugenia finds herself intrigued by him. She never expected to meet a man who's even lonelier than she is. Disfigured in the war, Captain Conran is determined to remain a recluse forever, but Eugenia provides him with an unexpected challenge.
After he's given a tantalizing glimpse of the widow's bare skin, how long can he keep himself hidden? A Man Without Manners is a steamy Regency novella about second chances and facing fears. Sensuality Level: HighWord Count: 20, 000
