Оглавление“Dammit, Colin. I feel like I’m unraveling. And I hate it.”
Colin had no more suggestions to make. So he went to her and took her in his arms instead.
She stood rigidly in his embrace. It occurred to him that he’d never known a woman as complex as Alex, as difficult to reach. She was fighting so many battles. She had to be exhausted trying to do it all on her own.
“Alex...let somebody help now and then. Maybe even somebody like me.”
“What can you do for me, Colin?” she whispered against his chest. “How can you help me?”
“I don’t know,” he answered honestly. “Maybe just by being around.”
“That’s not the kind of rescue you’re accustomed to. And I keep telling you...I don’t want to be rescued.”
