Elizabeth Hoyt Quote

He looked back at Eve, holding out his hand. Come on, then.She looked between him and his hand, pressing her lips together, but not moving.He frowned. Eve.She inhaled and took his hand, awkwardly inching toward him without a sound.Brave lass, Asa purred.He caught her other hand, ignoring her flinch, and pulled her into his arms. What a small thing she was! She might be tall, but Eve's body was as light as a bird's. He could feel the delicate bones of her shoulder, the slender span of her waist, and he thanked God that she'd not been crushed by the planks falling on her.
