A Scandal By Any Other Name

A Scandal By Any Other Name

{ COMPLETED } BOOK TWO OF THE HAMILTON SERIES WARNING: A Regency Era novel. Adult content with detailed smut…Read at you own risk Genre: Historical Romance / Smut / Enemies-to-Lovers / Mystery / Comedy / Found family [Book Two of the Hamilton Series. Can be read as a standalone, but better enjoyed after Lady Ines’ Scandalous Hobby.] To the world, Duke Rowan Hamilton is the perfect gentleman. But in the bedroom, he is a man possessed. Rowan Hamilton has it all: a Ducal title, the face of a fallen angel, and a smile that makes debutantes faint. He is the "Golden Duke"—charming, responsible, and utterly adored by society. But it’s all a lie. Beneath the coats and polite manners, Rowan is a man haunted by a ghost. For three years, he has remained faithful to the memory of a masked woman who stole a kiss, bested him at a game of chance, and vanished into the night. He doesn't want any one as his wife; he wants her. When his domineering aunt tires of his bachelorhood, she hires London’s most notorious underground matchmaker to force the issue. Enter Miss Delaney Kingsley. She is sharp-tongued, infuriatingly competent, and entirely unimpressed by his title. Her mission? To drag Rowan to the altar with the season’s "Diamond," Lady Celine, within three months to collect the juicy payment Rowan’s aunt had to offer. Rowan intends to fire the meddlesome woman. But when Delaney looks at him with those hazel, intelligent eyes and orders him around like a young lad, he feels the first spark of life he’s felt in years. He decides to play her game. He will let her find him a wife. But he has no intention of choosing anyone even Lady Celine. "You were hired to find me a Duchess, Miss Kingsley. But the only person I want in my duchy and in my bed... is you." As mysteries turn into forbidden nights and the bickering turns into scorching passion, Rowan begins to suspect that his matchmaker is hiding a secret of her own. She moves like a shadow, handles a rifle like a soldier, and tastes exactly like the ghost he’s been hunting for three years. What to Expect: * High Stake Mystery: They try to untangle themselves from the Farrington’s trap. * The Golden Retriever Duke: Who turns into a possessive Alpha behind closed doors. * The Matchmaker Trope: She’s trying to marry him off; he’s trying to take her clothes off. * High Heat: Slow burn that explodes into intense smut. * Competence Kink: He falls harder every time she bosses him around. * Cameos: Featuring the chaotic domestic life of Duchess Ines and Duke Carcel (and their baby Harry!). Excerpt: "Your Grace, please focus," Delaney snapped, adjusting his cravat with efficient, gloved hands. "Lady Celine is waiting in the ballroom. You must look at her as if she is the only woman in the world." Rowan caught her wrist, stopping her movements. He stepped into her space, backing her against the heavy oak door of the study, his "Golden Boy" mask slipping to reveal the hunger beneath. "And how, exactly, does one do that, Miss Kingsley?" he whispered, his voice rough. "Show me." "I—I cannot show you, It I s not in my place to—" "Then teach me," he growled, lowering his head until his lips brushed the sensitive skin of her neck. "Teach me how to pretend I am not burning alive every time you walk into a room."

Is a question with an answer a rhetorical question?
A rhetorical question didn't require an answer from the other person. The answer was in the question. It was a question that expressed an affirmative point of view. Questions were actually asking for information and needed the other party to answer. Therefore, questions with answers were not rhetorical questions. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

Question.
I recommend the following novels: "Wear It Quickly: Seventh Master, Overwhelming Favor","Wear It Quickly: This Wish Is Unreliable","Wear It Quickly: The Female Lead's Struggle Guide", and "Wear It Quickly: Su Zhatian". These novels are all fast-paced counterattacks. The female supporting characters and the main characters have good counterattacks. I believe you will like them. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~šŸ˜—

Is a rhetorical question a question without an answer?
No, it wasn't. On the surface, a rhetorical question was a question, but in fact, it expressed an affirmative meaning. The answer was in the question. For example," Can't you see that there are people listening to books in the small teahouse?" This question was actually an affirmation that " you should have seen someone listening to a book in the small teahouse." Moreover, rhetorical questions could also be used to respond to the questioners. The rhetorical question processing method was to use rhetorical questions or questions to answer the objections raised by the customers. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

What was an objective question? What was a subjective question?
An objective question is a question that requires the reader to provide actual evidence or information so that the author or the author's agent can analyze and judge it. For example,"Who is Albert Einstein?" Or "Who is the main character in Journey to the West?" Subjective questions were questions that required the author or the author's agent to make a subjective judgment. This type of question usually requires the reader to provide their own opinions or thoughts and support or refute the author's point of view. For example,"I think the main character in Journey to the West is Sun Wukong. What about you?" Or "Do you disagree with the author's view that Sun Wukong is the main character in Journey to the West?"
