Karen Witemeyer Quote
Ben did all he could to look nonchalant. Rested his forearms on his thighs as he drove. Kept his fingers loose and relaxed on the reins. Added just a touch of a smile to his mouth so his expression would give away none of his inner turmoil. Had he said too much? Prodded old wounds when he would’ve been better leaving them alone? He didn’t know. And the not knowing was driving him crazy. Tori hadn’t said a word since he’d brought up her past. Not even an angry one. Nothing. It was unnerving. ’Course he hadn’t said anything either. He gave his head a nearly imperceptible shake. She’d finally admitted that he might actually have a few admirable qualities, despite his male status, and he’d gone and ruined the moment by reminding her of the reason she distrusted his kind in the first place. Brilliant,
