Snowe's Registry Office for Select Governesses
14 Cavendish Square
London
Nothing ruins a dinner party like expertise. A lady who has attended fourteen lectures about Chinese porcelain will Ming this and Tsing that all evening; a baron who has published an essay about vultures in a zoological magazine will undoubtedly hold forth on the unpleasant habits of carrion-eaters. Eugenia Snowe's area of expertise, on the other hand, would have made dinner guests howl with laughter, if only it were appropriate to share.
Seven Minutes in Heaven by Eloisa James
"Never mind the impossibility of that; your request implies that I would trust you with another of my governesses," Eugenia countered. "You will have to seek your lion tamer elsewhere."
Happy Valentine's Day
