Lisa KleypasI'd sell my soul to have you. In my whole life, you'll always be what I wanted most." ~ Hardy Cates
Lisa KleypasAt first I wasnโt all that tempted by him, but then he killed the spider. Which was a huge point in his favor.โ โAbsolutely. I love men who kill bugs.โ โAnd then when I was freaking out and couldnโt breathe, he was soโฆgentle.โ Zoe sighed and colored, remembering. โHe was holding me, and talking to me in that voiceโฆyou know, sort of low and rough around the edgesโฆโ โAll the Nolans sound like that,โ Justine said reflectively. โLike theyโve got a mild case of bronchitis. Totally hot.
Lisa KleypasAs we talked, I had the sense of uncovering something precious and long-buried, fully formed. Our conversation was a process of removing layers, some of them easily dusted away. Other layers, requiring chisels or axes, were left alone for now. We revealed as much as we dared about what had happened during the years that separated us. But it wasn't what I had expected, being with Hardy again. There was something in me that remained stubbornly locked away, as if I were afraid to let out the emotion I had harbored for so long.
