“You’re not asking. I’m offering. It’s important that you finish school.”
“Be that as it may, you will have enough on your hands taking care of your grandmother. I don’t want anyone’s pity.” Amber’s cheeks pinked. “You have no idea how humiliating it is to always be on the receiving end of charity.”

“What if we could do each other a favor?”
Her forehead creased. “I don’t understand.”

“You’re proposing an exchange of services?”
“Exactly. No charity involved.”
She studied him for a long moment. “I guess there’s no harm in giving it a try.”
