Building a Dream
Reid Blackthorn arrives in Dover on a personal mission—to make sure his terminally ill brother gets a chance to meet his daughter. Deceiving little Lily’s guardian isn’t his intention. Yet once Tori Montgomery mistakes Reid for her new handyman, he knows it’s the only way to be close to his niece. Tori is honoring her friend’s last wish by keeping Lily away from her father’s family. And once she learns who Reid truly is, she realizes there’s too much at stake—including custody of Lily—for her to fall for the former DEA agent. But in keeping a promise, is she losing out on her chance for a happily-ever-after?
“Looks like our little girl has had enough for today.”
Our little girl. Was that how he thought of them—as a family?
“She’s so beautiful when she’s asleep.”
“And quiet.”
Tori nodded. “She does like to talk.” Softly they made their way back downstairs.
He gazed her way and smiled. Her breath caught. His smile stole the starch from her knees. It was wide and warm and utterly charming. There was a small crease on one side of his mouth that was completely adorable. She couldn’t look away.
“Is everything all right?”
She nodded. “You should do that more often.”
“What?”
“Smile.”
He drew his finger across his chin as if embarrassed. “I haven’t had much to smile about in the last few years.”
“Well, it’s quite a sight.”
“You think so?”
“I do.”
“Then, I’ll try to find more reasons to display it.”
Tori looked into his eyes and saw a warmth and lightness she’d never seen before.
