Before The Dawn (Truly Yours Digital Editions) - Plot & Excerpts
Karen drew a deep breath, then several more. The bouquet of flowers from the conservatory trembled in her hands. Jesse leaned down to whisper in her ear. “Don’t let my son’s sour face fool you. Deep down, he’s getting what he wants. Believe it. David loves you and needs you. This is for the best.” She pressed her free hand against the hummingbirds bom-barding her stomach. With little ceremony, Jesse led her into the parlor. Sam stood beside David and ran his finger around his collar as if he was the one getting married. Dear Pastor Van Dyke, his suit rumpled and his white hair running amok, held his Bible before him like a shield. Matilda smiled and nodded encouragement, and beside her, David’s cousin Marcus stood. He didn’t meet her gaze, and he checked his watch as if he’d rather be anywhere else. Marcus. He had been one of the first people she’d met when she first got her job at the registry office. She lost count of the times he’d asked her permission to call. Though he was nice enough, she just wasn’t interested, especially after meeting David.
