Her Knight In The Outback (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Lord, how domestic. And utterly foreign. ‘You don’t need to cook for me, Eve. I ate up big at lunchtime in anticipation.’ ‘I was there, remember? And while it certainly was big you probably burned it all off with that epic swim earlier.’ And Lord knew, between the lusting and the fearing for her life, she’d just burnt all hers off, too. Preparing food felt natural; she’d been doing it for Travis for so many years. Moreover, it gave her something constructive and normal to do for thirty minutes, but Marshall wasn’t so lucky. He hovered, hopelessly. After the comparative intimacy of the bike ride, it seemed ludicrous to be uncomfortable about sharing a simple meal. But he was, a little. And so was she. A lot. ‘Here.’ She slid him a bottle opener across the raw timber counter of the Bedford’s compact little kitchen. ‘Make yourself useful.’ She nodded to a small cabinet above the built-in television and, when he opened it, his eyebrows lifted at the contents.
