Pre-Order!
(Reporter Jeff is having a conversation with Jake Harkner)
“Can you answer one question for me before I leave?” Jeff asked.
“If it doesn’t take a long story.”
“No. I just want to know how you would describe your wife if you could only use one or two words.”
A look of complete adoration and sorrow moved through Jake’s gaze. He smoked quietly, saying nothing at first. “The center of my universe,” he finally answered. “And the air I breathe. No man could ask for better.”
Jeff scribbled the words. “That’s a beautiful way to put it.”
“She’s a beautiful woman – inside and out. I have absolutely no idea how or why she puts up with me.”
“Pardon my forwardness, but I suspect it’s because she feels the same way about you, Jake. You are the air she breathes.”
Jake met Jeff’s gaze. “I had no right ever touching that woman, but I never wanted anything worse in my life than I wanted her the first time I saw her.”
