Оглавление“Why are you leaving, Darcy?”
“The longer I’ve stayed—maybe I’ve overstayed—the more lost I feel.” She averted her eyes. “Perhaps it’s time for me to see if there’s more out there.”
“Does more have to be out there? Not here?”
Her gaze returned to his. “I thought you’d understand, Jax. We’re both all or nothing people.”
“You want to know the real reason I didn’t return until now?” His heart drummed in his chest. “I didn’t think there could ever be a place here for me again.”
“But you’re home now, Jax.”
“Am I?” He studied her. “Will you forgive me, Darcy?”
His question was about so much more than what happened this afternoon.
She looked at him. “I’m here, aren’t I?”
“Can we get back to being friends?” He thrust out his chin. “We were friends, Darcy. Once.”
“Trust might be trickier than merely coming home.”
Jax tightened his jaw. “A chance is all I’m asking.”
