When Harriet Came Home (2011)
“Harriet had always loved her job, had never minded the long hours, and she found herself even more grateful as the day of the Harvest Ball grew closer. Concentrating on the preparations kept her mind preoccupied, leaving her little time to dwell on Adam. During the week she was forced to see him in connection with the ball, but after the meeting at the high school, thankfully she didn’t have to be alone again with him.
The truth was, she didn’t know how to behave around him anymore. His kisses ...and the feel of his body against hers had turned her inside out, but what he’d said to her outside the high school had disturbed her just as much. He had planted questions in her mind, unwelcome, bothersome questions that wouldn’t go away, no matter how long or hard she worked.
Was she too caught up in the past? Had she let it dictate her life, restrict the possibilities? If she let go of all the hurt and petty humiliation, if she stopped thinking about herself and Adam in terms of what had happened in the past…where did that lead her?MoreLess
