EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT

“Elena, you know I have baggage. I think you have some, too. Please, accept my apology.”

“Where’s Brittany when you need her?” Elena rubbed her face with her hands. Hard.

“Brittany?”

“The truth speaker. She could tell me if what you’re telling me is real. I’ve lived almost fifty years without being propositioned the way you just did.”

She crossed her arms across her chest again and searched his eyes.

He didn’t dare look away. She deserved to know about his past. Even if it meant losing the hint of happiness he’d felt with her. “Brittany can interrogate me if that’s what you want. Honestly, I was trying to say that I will take care of you if you need help. I’m sorry for the way I said it, but not for what I meant.”

“I can accept your apology. It’s the future of our relationship I’m trying to understand.” She relaxed enough for the scowl to leave her face. “I need time to work through this, Draper.”

She meant time to work through it on her own. Time to decide if she was going to continue with their relationship. With him.

The panic he felt when he saw that she was getting ready to leave earlier was nothing compared to what he was feeling now. He knew what mattered most to her and he was desperate enough to use it.
