Since You've Been Gone (Welcome To Paradise) - Plot & Excerpts
The second she registered his absence, she got a queasy feeling in her stomach, though she wasn’t really sure why. He’d probably just woken up early and was downstairs eating breakfast. There was no reason for her belly to be churning and her palms to be this damp and—her thoughts died abruptly when she glimpsed the piece of paper resting ominously on Austin’s pillow. Her heart started to pound, but not in a good way. Sitting up, she snatched the paper and quickly read Austin’s note. Mari, By the time you wake up, I’ll already be on my way to the airport. We both know you need to take that job. You love Paradise. You belong here. But me… I can’t be here right now. I don’t know if this place will ever feel like home to me again, but I’m glad it feels like home to you. I’m glad I met you. And I meant every word I said last night. I’m catching an earlier flight—it leaves at 10:20 a.m. There’ll be a ticket waiting for you at the airline counter if you change your mind.
