    Summary

    “Oh.” Eloise sat back and raised a hand to her mouth, considering. “That is a neat solution. If you two were married, then our troubles would no longer plague us.”

    “Pardon?” Penelope said, heartbeat thudding in her ears.

    “Excuse me?” Colin said at the very same moment.

    Despite knowing that this is an awful idea, Penelope agrees to a marriage of convenience. She settles into an idyllic house in the countryside to await letters from her husband travelling abroad.

    Time will tell whether the marriage proves truly convenient—or something more than any of them could have anticipated.

    Summary

    They were lucky to have gotten this job. Never mind that the job hit a little too close to home with star-crossed lovers who were never able to love each other openly. That definitely won't cause any problems for the strongest Listener since Marissa Fittes.

    Summary

    She freezes, her situation barreling suddenly into full focus.

    She’s lying on her side, lengthwise on the inner half of the sofa. Lockwood is flat on his back beside her, his body effectively trapping her against the sofa back. Her cheek is pillowed against his clavicle, and her right arm is resting on his chest, her palm pressed flat against his button-up. She can feel the individual fibers of the cotton. She can feel his heartbeat.

    His breath is warm and steady against her hairline; if the regularity of his breathing is anything to go by, he’s fast asleep. And she can thank her lucky stars for that.

    Because of greatest urgency at the moment: her right leg is slung across his waist, pressing right up against his groin. And he’s hard. Like, really hard.

    Summary

    All her thoughts point to one simple solution.

    Well. Simple isn’t the right word. In fact, it could complicate things between them. But it would be an immediate solution to their current impasse until they can set up another system, something that George would be able to help them with.

    “I have an idea.” She blurts out before she can think too much about it.

    “I’m all ears, Luce.”

    “You have to promise not to laugh.”

    Lockwood’s face changes, eyeing her warily like he’s on guard. “Okay?”

    “You could sleep with me.”

    ......

    Lucy starts sleepwalking. Even in her sleep, Lockwood will follow her anywhere.
