“Don’t love me.”
The words came unbidden from his throat. Not a thought, but a plea.
“Too late,” she whispered in his ear.
“Don’t tell me so. Don’t say the words.”
“I love you.” She cupped his face in her hands and brushed a kiss to his lips. “I love you so much.”

Beauty and the Beast meets Batman — this story had all the delectable b&tb tropes with a more brazen and strong willed fmc. A definite must read if you like historical romance!
