Teresa Medeiros Quote

Do you know what the best thing about getting my sight back will be? he asked softly.No, she replied, all of the bravado gone from her voice.Straightening, he took one step toward her, then another. She refused to give ground until he was almoston top of her. Feeling the air shift as she retreated, he clumsily flanked her until their positions werereversed and she was the one backing toward the door. Some might believe it would be the joy ofwatching the sun dip below a lavender horizon at the end of a perfect summer day.When he heard her back come up against the door, he splayed one palm against the thick mahoganybehind her. Others might judge it to be perusing the velvety petals of a ruby red rose…—leaningforward until he felt the warm tickle of her breath against his face, he deepened his voice to a smokycaress—or gazing tenderly into the eyes of a beautiful woman. But I can promise you, Miss Wickersham, that all of those pleasures will pale in comparison to the sheer unmitigated joy of being ridof you.
