The whores would gladly accommodate the handsome and wealthy future Earl of Standings, but the bloody houses had to stop disappearing first. He couldn't get the deed done with an accommodating widow or a servant at a ton gathering. The strangest things kept intervening, like flying desserts and lady hawks.

But he didn't believe in love and refused to marry - so what would Peter do if he found her?.
