Tasting Temperance

Lady Temperance knows she is in trouble when her guardian, Viscount Linchester, catches her sneaking out of the garden in a state of dishabille. When she reveals she was with Lady Prudence, not Pru's brother Horrid Harold, as Ashby assumed, her guardian accepts the news she was kissing the other woman with aplomb. Ashby is convinced she can't have learned much from another inexperienced chit and does something most peculiar--he offers to instruct her in the art of kissing...everywhere.
