For just a moment, with her newly realized love for him aching in her heart, she’d hoped for something more from him. She’d hoped that the gentleness of his lovemaking had indicated a depth of feeling for her, that the passion he’d shown her had sprung from someplace other than his groin.

How she wanted to hang on to some anger, how she longed to raise her anger like a shield against her feelings for him. But, as hard as she tried, she couldn’t sustain her irritation.
