[4/10] favorite grace burrowes regency couples :: george + elsie haddonfield

elsie leaned against george, let him for one moment have all of her weariness and fear, all of her anger and despair. to hold her felt good, though holding her wasn’t nearly as much comfort as she deserved.

and then she kissed him.

george’s mind manufactured a single thought--kissing elsie felt good too!--before he began kissing her back.

{tremaine’s true love}

so here’s the tea on these 2 sweethearts. they are one of my favorite GB couples and they do not have even so much as a novella to call their own. seriously, mary fran and matthew i-forget-their-last-name got a novella. morgan and archer portmaine got a novella. jonathan and amy dolan got a novella. george’s own brother max, who got scarcely a passing mention in the main books, showed up to woo and wed his antonia in a novella. and george and elsie...their story is only told through george’s siblings’ books. granted, there is enough there that it doesn’t feel like their story absolutely needs more...but i love them so much that i want them to have more. i need all the details for these two precious, fictional human beings and what i have is scraps from george’s siblings. anyway, this quote was from the book where they actually tie the knot. <3
