The Heart Of A Hero. Judith Stacy

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ Maggie and Jimmy playing in the side yard. A myriad of emotions surged through Sarah, causing her heart to beat harder.

      Jess rose slowly, put away his pocket knife and tossed aside the stick he’d been whittling.

      “Logan.”

      “Rutledge.”

      The men glared at each other.

      Sarah stepped away from Dwight. “Thank you for supper.”

      He tore his gaze from Jess, a scowl drawing his features together. “I’ll come to call after services on Sunday.”

      Sarah glanced at Jess and saw his shoulders stiffen. “No, I won’t be here. I’m having supper with the Sullivans.”

      His expression soured. “Another time, then.”

      Dwight stared at Jess again. Jess braced his arm against the porch roof support column, making it clear he didn’t intend to leave. Finally, Dwight touched the brim of his hat. “Good evening.”

      Sarah watched him until he faded into the gray shadows stretching across the road. She turned to Jess and his bravado dissolved.

      “I, ah, I brought back your kettle.” He gestured to the black pot sitting on the porch.

      “You didn’t have to wait.”

      “I didn’t wait. I just got here.”

      The heaping mound of wood chips he’d whittled told a different story.

      Jess ignored her unspoken challenge and walked down the steps. He waved his hand at the house. “Do you really live in this place? It looks like it’s ready to fall down.”

      “It could use some work.”

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
