After getting married for three years, Lysander Thorne was still of the opinion that Josiah Guerra was an entirely different being when in bed. On ordinary days, Josiah was considerate and gentle, a true gentleman. But when it came to their intimate moments at night, Lysander always felt like she couldn’t keep up with his stamina.
