Machinations

Everyone was playing games. His father, his stepmother, and even Jonah and Nina. Daniel Newton, viscount Kylesbrae, future earl of Wickline, and The McClure, was not. He didn't care about Wickline, the estate or the title. He was The McClure and he cared only for Kylesbrae. Unfortunately it needed the money his father dangled like a carrot.The charade had worked for years, but Jonah knew it was coming to an end. Nina's obsession with Kylesbrae was not in his plans. He could control Kylesbrae. Like himself, there was a deep core of honor in the man. Who he was losing control of was Nina.And nobody could control the countess.
