A Leap Of Faith (The Hands Of Time: Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
“Kit? Are you all right?” Louisa threw her legs over the side of the bed, ready to go to him, but his words froze her to the spot. “Who was he, Louisa?” His voice was low, angry. She knew this would come up. No man of this time could overlook a lover. “Who are you referring to?” She knew full well, but needed to hear it from him. “The man you loved so dearly, that you were willing to lie with him without the benefit of marriage.” He didn’t look at her, but continued to stare out of the window, tense and cold. “He was someone I knew when I was very young. It was in a different place and a different time. Why does it suddenly matter, when only a few hours ago you said you didn’t care about my past?” Louisa felt a heavy weight drop into the pit of her stomach. Her modern mind wanted to rage at him, to tell him to mind his own business, and just get over it, but her heart suddenly felt very fragile. His opinion of her mattered greatly, and she wanted to go to him and tell him that the past, or in this case, the future, didn’t matter. That Doug was out of her heart, and he was the only one she wanted. She admired his sense of honor, and wanted him to think of her as an honorable woman, not some cheap trollop who would fall into bed with any man she found attractive. Kit slowly turned around, his eyes bottomless pools of blackness in the moonlight spilling from the window. His face was bleached of all color, nearly as white as his shirt.
