Falling For Grace
Stella Bagwell
The moment he saw his new neighbor, Jack Barrett was intrigued. Grace Holliday had a sweetness the cynical lawyer hadn't encountered in a long time. Yet he realized she was much too young for him. And very obviously pregnant–But something kept drawing him to her. Before long, he was deeply involved in her life. Too involved. Jack soon understood that with Grace, it would have to be forever or nothing, and he'd been down that road before. He had no plans to make a commitment–to anyone.Even if she was carrying his nephew's child…
“It’s standard procedure for me to interview people before I hire them, Grace,” Jack said.
She straightened her shoulders and lifted her chin. “By asking them who they’ve slept with? I’m sorry, but that’s getting a bit personal for me.” Her gaze deliberately swept up and down his body. “Maybe you should remember the old saying about those without sin throwing the first stone, because I doubt you’ve been living like a monk.”
Her words angered him, but the hot blaze in her green eyes excited him like nothing he could remember. He wanted to jerk her into his arms, smother her lips with his. It was crazy! She was a stranger, and a pregnant one at that….
Yet the feeling was there. And it felt glorious to a man who’d been emotionally dead for a long, long time.
