An Unexpected Proposal (St Daine Family 1) (23 page)

, Julia stood before her wardrobe, her bottom lip pinned between her teeth as she contemplated her clothing with a critical eye. Finally, decision made, she scooped out an armful and tossed it decisively onto the bed. No more soft pastels and virginal whites for her, she determined, and her armoire full of dresses were not the only things she intended to be rid of, either.
Oh, nay, indeed.
If, in the eyes of Society, she were to be cast off as too old to be an acceptable bride, she would feel neither compunction nor remorse for casting off most of Society's confining rules...and she had Adrien to thank for pointing out the path to her freedom.
A smile, slowly borne yet quickly grown spread across her lips.
