       “I’d like to get to know you again.”

      His eyes turned serious when he added, “How about if we start fresh, pretend we just met? Could we do that tonight?”

      She tried to speak but could get nothing past her throat, not even breath.

      You can’t pretend that, her conscience protested. Tell him about his son. He needs to know.

      He touched her lips. “Think less. This one time.”

      He pulled her chair closer, close enough for him to cup the back of her head. “On second thought, you should know my intentions before we set our plans in stone.” His voice was so soft.

      Her heart beat so hard she could barely draw the breath to speak. “What are your intentions?”

      Tenderly his lips settled on hers, soft as down. How could she have forgotten the feel of them, the scent of his skin? It was a homecoming.

      She kissed him back with yearning and passion and a hunger she couldn’t satisfy on a neighborhood porch.

      This is wrong, her conscience cried out.

      If it was, it was an exquisite, magnificent mistake.

      Thunder Ridge, Oregon

      Izzy Lambert considered herself an honest person, and she’d bet her last dollar that most people who knew her would agree. In her whole life, she’d told only two whoppers. And if you wanted to get technical about it, the first was really more a lie of omission than an outright fib.

      She’d spent a whole lot of time afraid her secrets would be discovered and nearly a decade and a half on the lookout for the man from whom she’d withheld the truth. Sometimes she’d think she was seeing him...

      ...in the car behind hers at the Macho Taco drive-through in Bend...

      And once she’d nearly choked on a Mickey Mouse pancake at Disneyland, because she thought he was there, pushing a double stroller.
