Guilt gnawed at him. He’d been relieved that Jade’s tearful breakdown at the news of her sister’s death enabled him to get her safely away without any further delays.

“It’s going to be all right,” he whispered. Neither of them really believed that, but she needed to hear it right now.

A complicated mix of tenderness and protectiveness flowed through him. He shouldn’t be doing this…shouldn’t be caring about her.

But he didn’t regret it for an instant.
