Tall, Dark And Cowboy (2011)
“They hadn’t spoken when they parted. They’d barely spoken the whole time they’d been alone together. He stared out at the street, wondering if she’d tossed and turned and relived every moment of their union the way he had.
The way she’d gathered up her clothes and held him for a heartbeat before she stepped out the door had felt somehow final, as if she’d made up her mind to leave. He’d made up his mind too—he’d accept her decision. What he and Lacey had wasn’t something either of them coul...d control. It was just there, and it always would be.
