CALLEN (Second Chance Novels Book 3) - Plot & Excerpts
When her car pulls in, her eyes meet mine in complete understanding. Only a moment later she's standing beside me, gaging me as she always does. Without hesitation, I lean down and kiss her gently as I wrap my hand around the back of her neck. "I'm sorry," I breathe across her lips when I find the resolve to break the kiss. "I'm trying." Her eyes remain closed as she nods. I kiss her one more gentle time before I run my fingers down her arm and take her hand. Her eyes meet mine again, and the depth of emotion shifts a piece of me. Her silence, however, nudges me further toward guilt over hurting her. "Will you come with me?" I ask softly. "I have a place we can talk." She nods and lets me lead her to my car. I'm thankful her faith in me isn't completely lost. We ride quietly to the hotel and my face falls softly at her expression when I pull into the parking lot. She doesn't speak at all until we're in the hotel and I open the door into the penthouse suite. "How long have you had this planned?" she asks cautiously as she takes in the modern luxury of the room. "Since this morning," I tell her. "You didn't need to do all this," she shakes her head as she sets her purse on the entryway table.
