Straight From the Heart (2007)
“It was raining. Rebecca couldn’t have been happier. The Mavericks had been scheduled for an afternoon home game against Kenosha, but the ballpark would be empty. No game would be played today. She glanced out the window at the steady shower and smiled.
Justin, Hugh, and Muriel were spending the afternoon together, going first to a Disney double feature and then to Captain Jack’s for pizza and video games. Rebecca had begged off, saying she had too much paperwork to catch up on.
That was a fib. ...The paperwork was going to stay where it was on her desk in the study. She had every intention of spending the afternoon with her attention focused on Jace.

She moved around her room lighting candles and turning down the covers on the bed.MoreLess
