      HIS KISS

      Meg contented herself with the fiercest glare she could manage. “At the risk of repeating myself, Mr. Parker-Roth—go away!”

      “And at the risk of repeating myself, Miss Peterson, no. I am not leaving you alone in this garden.”

      She really, really would like to kick him.

      “Sir, you are not my keeper—”

      “Bloody hell, woman.” Mr. Parker-Roth transferred his grip to her shoulders. “Someone needs to be your damn keeper and I don’t see a blasted queue forming for that honor.”

      “I do not need a kee—mpht.”

      The annoying man had covered her mouth with his own.
