Claustrophobic Christmas (2011)
“Darcy twitched away from James again when he caught her before she could bust her butt on the icy interstate. She’d rather land on her ass in the snow than admit she needed his help.
Even filled with insufferable self-righteousness, he was considerate and protective. Too bad he hadn’t thought about protecting her from his damned obtuse self.
By the time they reached her car, Darcy couldn’t feel her feet. Her sneakers were solidly refrozen, as well as the ankles of her sweatpants. At least the s...now had stopped spitting into her face and glasses.
“I can take it from here,” she told James over the rumble and purr of motors all around them. Car horns tooted in the distance, presumably as the wagon train from snowy hell got underway at the bridge.
“I’ll stay with you until the traffic breaks.” He started around to the passenger door.
She seized the sleeve of his parka, her hands clumsy but warm in his giant gloves. “No, you won’t. You’re going.” “Darcy, I’m not leaving you until I know you’ll be okay.” He waved at the front of the car.MoreLess
