“Abby, you deserve a man who will treat you right. A man who can provide you with a future, someone you have things in common with.”
“Maybe you’re right. Maybe I do deserve some mythical paragon of excellence. But I don’t want that, Daniel.” She touched his cheek and smiled.
“I want you. Now, why don’t you just shut up and kiss me?”
And finally, that’s exactly what he did.
