“That’s not love.”
“It’s a form of love.” He rinsed a plate and handed it to her.
She took it. “No. That’s impulsively going from one relationship to the next and not holding out for the one that really matters.”
But the one that really matters didn’t exist. To him, every woman he was with mattered, not just one, exulted one. One, superior woman was the stuff of fairy tales. Like Cinderella. Pure fantasy. A wonderful, magical dream. She walked into that ballroom alone and everyone stopped just to watch her come down the stairs in her fairy godmother gown that outshined all others. Something like that would never happen in real life. A man didn’t find a woman who made all others seem plain and insignificant.
But he didn’t think he could make Drury understand.
“It’s love to me,” he said.
She put the plate in the dishwasher. “No. That is not love. Clearly you’ve never been in love.”
“I only know what works for me.” He handed her another plate.
“Well. Thanks for the warning, then.” She put the plate in the dishwasher and glanced at him from behind a sexy curtain of hair.
He didn’t say she likely idolized her husband in death and merely thought she had true love with him. He wouldn’t argue over this. He wouldn’t have a chance with her. He’d scared her off. Well, good. He didn’t need his ideals put to any kind of love test anyway. Especially since he also had to put aside the nagging feeling that his attraction to her rose above anything he’d ever experienced before.
His Cinderella...?
