Since postage was calculated in part by the number of sheets in the letter, many people economized by writing “crossed” letters. At the time of A Night Like This, postage was paid by the recipient of a letter, not the sender. I have always been fascinated by postal systems and had great fun researching how Anne might send letters to her sister.It's in His Kiss takes place one year after A Night Like This, so I had a lot of fun setting up the pieces of Harriet’s future “masterwork.” Written, of course, by Harriet Pleinsworth. Harriet Pleinsworth first made her first appearance in It's in His Kiss when Hyacinth and Gareth discovered that what they thought was to be a poetry reading had been changed to a performance of an original composition-The Shepherdess, the Unicorn, and Henry VIII.
In this case, a distractingly lovely pianist sitting in at the annual Smythe-Smith musicale catches the eye of a haunted, hunted man in desperate need of redemption. And when Anne is thrown into peril, he will stop at nothing to ensure their happy ending… From #1 New York Times bestselling author, and creator of the Bridgerton series, Julia Quinn presents the second, stunning installment in the Bridgerton adjacent Regency era-set world featuring the romantic adventures of the well-meaning but less-than-accomplished Smythe-Smith musicians. But Daniel has an enemy, one who has vowed to see him dead. And when the young earl spies a mysterious woman at his family’s annual musicale, he vows to pursue her, even if that means spending his days with a ten-year-old who thinks she’s a unicorn. After years of dodging unwanted advances, he’s the first man who has truly tempted her, and it’s getting harder and harder to remind herself that a governess has no business flirting with a nobleman.īut that’s not going to stop Daniel Smythe-Smith from falling in love. Her job can be a challenge- in a single week she finds herself hiding in a closet full of tubas, playing an evil queen in a play that might be a tragedy (or might be a comedy- no one is sure), and tending to the wounds of the oh-so-dashing Earl of Winstead. But Anne Wynter is managing quite well as a governess to three highborn young ladies.
