The Humbug Man (2015)
“But Maggie was wakeful and restless. Her mind kept going back to Hollister, to a day that was going to live forever in her memory, like the man who was such a part of it.
She hadn’t wanted this complication in her life. For years she’d kept men at a safe distance. She’d dated, but with the careful stipulation that she was searching only for friendship. Once or twice she’d had to ask to be taken home because some of her dates had been quite sophisticated and certain that they had the perfect... cure for her reserved attitude about sex. But Maggie wasn’t interested in cures or even in men. Her brief marriage had left her unsatisfied and a little embarrassed at her own sexuality. She didn’t understand the restlessness she’d been feeling lately or her rather frightening attraction to Tate Hollister. She knew so little about men and intimacy. Far too little to handle a violent emotional upheaval in her life. All she wanted now, she told herself, was her job and her son.MoreLess
