Debra Burroughs - Paradise Valley 02.5 - the Edge of Lies
“He had feared everything would eventually come crashing down around him one day, but he never thought it would happen so soon. What would he do now that this guy was out there somewhere? How would they go about regular life? He couldn’t just ask Emily to pick up and move again. He could never justify that without telling her.
As he drove, his mind filled with thoughts of Emily. She was the kind of woman any man would be lucky to marry. She deserved better than him, he knew, she deserved to be t...he wife of an honest, respectable man.
Instead, he’d selfishly charmed her into falling in love with him, because once he’d met her, he knew he couldn’t live without her.
He could never come clean with her about the things he’d done—the blood that stained his hands—but he could make sure if anything ever happened to him, she would always be taken care of. That was the least he could do for her.
When Evan pulled into the driveway, the girls were just leaving. He had no choice but to plaster a smile on his face, greet them, and let Emily make introductions.MoreLess
