Handcuffed In Housewares: Tulle And Tulips, Book 3 (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
She helped finish the floor in the entryway, painted walls and re-grouted the tile in the showers. She walked into his house each evening in raggedy clothes and her hair in a loose ponytail. She walked out each morning in sensible business clothes and her hair in a well-secured bun. She shared both sides of herself with him, and both sides seemed like the real her. More and more the idea of Leigh becoming a permanent part of his life settled in Burton’s mind. In the hours he spent home alone, he saw and heard her. He viewed the rooms as if they were finished with every touch she suggested. Every touch that reflected him perfectly. Through helping him get the house sale-ready she had him looking at it as if it were his home. As if it were the place he wanted to start a family. With her. Every day he spent with her was a day he fell a little closer to love. By the time his eyes slid closed at night he was sure he’d gotten there, but each morning he watched her walk away he thought of Paula, and that had him wondering how long Leigh would stay before she decided he wasn’t the best she could get.
