“Leave it alone, Reeve. I know you’re trying to help, but if you dig into things you don’t understand, you’ll only hurt me. The baby, too.”
Once again, Reeve took her into his arms, but his feelings were not nearly as tender as before. Something was going on that he did not understand.
“Explain the rest, Polly,” he insisted, trying not to become intoxicated by the fragrant silkiness of her hair.
She shook her head. “I can’t.” Her voice broke.
Where was his sanity? Despite every bit of sense he had, he bent down and captured her mouth with his. For a moment she did not respond. And then she kissed him back, as though this was the only kiss they would ever share. As though there were no tomorrow.
