The More I See You (1999)
“First had been the bleeding that only lying still seemed to control. That had been frightening enough—almost as frightening as what she suspected was going on in Richard’s head.

She could just imagine. Either Richard thought she didn’t want him, or he didn’t want her.MoreLess
