Hart's Harbor. Deb Kastner

СКАЧАТЬ his jacket and attempt without success to retie his bow tie. She got the unspoken message, even if the other women cheering on the green didn’t hear what he was silently trying to tell them with his actions.

      He didn’t want to be paraded around like a piece of meat. And though he was going along with it like the gentleman he was, it was killing him to do it. From the tortured look on his face, he’d like to be anywhere but here in Safe Harbor, and most especially not on the bachelor’s block.

      Suddenly, Gracie found herself experiencing feelings she never thought to encounter when she climbed up this tree on the green.

      She felt sorry for Dr. Hart.

      She’d always been outrageously outgoing by nature, and she’d grown up in Safe Harbor, after all, with their strange traditions and irascible characters. It was all she’d ever known, and she was perfectly comfortable in this uncommon little part of the world. Up to and including taking her stand on the bachelorette block when it was her turn to do so, even flirting with the fellows to get a good price.

      But Kyle was different. He came from another world entirely. He was educated, distinguished, refined. He wasn’t some hick right off the farm who looked at the bachelor’s block as his opportunity to make his mark in the world.

      Her heart swelled into her throat. She could almost physically feel Kyle cringe from where she crouched in the tree as Chelsea made yet another bid. Gracie knew how much it cost Kyle not to jump right off that block and make a run for it.

      The next moment, her decision was made, and her heart was firm.

      She swung her leg around and shifted down, swinging herself so she was dangling on the branch from her arms, where everyone on the green could see her, if—when—they looked in her direction. There could be no mistaking what she was about to do.

      “One thousand dollars,” she said, her voice as crystal clear as her mind was made up, and as her heart was strong and true.

      “The doctor has been sold. To me.”
