She would have to be at least as high born, graceful, and accomplished as Gabriella. The very idea of her choosing an ill-bred ruffian, even if he did happen to have a prestigious title, was bad enough without Simon having to worry about what people would think of the next bride he picked. Gabriella, now the Duchess of Huntley, would have made the perfect countess. It had been three years since the incident, yet it still rankled. After all, the longer he remained unattached, the more it looked like he’d not yet recovered from losing his fiancée to another man. He knew it had to happen soon if he was to maintain his dignity. Instead, he chose to pass his evenings with friends.Īt his age of three and thirty, marriage was expected. Weary of trying to find an acceptable bride, Simon Garrison Nugent, Earl of Fielding, had ceased all attempts at marriage and was currently steering clear of debutantes.
