“Happiness is always in reach. You just have to reach out and grab ahold of it.” Olivia Renault

Chapter Eight

Olivia stared into the bathroom mirror and vigorously brushed her teeth. She rinsed, then placed her toothbrush on the sink. She examined her face in the mirror with a critical eye. Surprisingly, she looked none the worse for wear after the late night they had enjoyed. There was a rosy glow to her cheeks and a special sparkle in her eyes.

It was all because of Hunter.

Going out on a date last night with Hunter had been sheer perfection. Even their unexpected stay at the Red Oak Inn couldn’t dampen her spirits.

Riding behind him on his motorcycle with her arms wrapped around him and her hair whipping in the wind had been a once in a lifetime experience. Dancing up a storm to the amazing sounds of Hurricane Soul had been thrilling. Being at Hunter’s side had been a dream come true.

She knew she would replay these memories over and over again in her head for the rest of her life. Last night had been a precious gift from God. Over the years she had become resigned to the fact that she would never see Hunter again or spend time with him. His return to Savannah had changed all that. At least temporarily.

Once they were at the inn they had talked until they had both fallen asleep. Not once had she felt uncomfortable being alone in a room with him. He hadn’t even tried to kiss her, she realized. Part of her felt slightly disappointed about it. Dates should end with a goodnight kiss. Hunter had been a perfect gentleman though—and she respected him all the more for it.

For the first time she’d gotten a glimpse into the hardships he had endured on his rise to the top. She had ached for him upon learning of his loneliness and self-doubt. He had made himself vulnerable with his confession.

She loved him. Still. And she knew she'd go on loving him for the rest of her days. It was that simple. And that complicated, she realized, since Hunter was only breezing in to town for a short period of time. Once the wedding had taken place, he’d be leaving to return to his high flying life in New York City. She feared that she would never see him again and that he’d take her heart along with him when he left. Just like last time.

Last night hadn't been about saving Renault Industries or rescuing her father from financial ruin. It had been all about the irresistible pull she felt towards Hunter and the overwhelming need she felt to be with him.

And now that they'd connected on a deep level, could she really ask him to step in and help save her father's failing company? She didn't want to cheapen their relationship by bartering for favors. At the same time, she couldn't ignore reality. Time was of the essence. With every passing day she knew that the company was slipping like grains of sand through her father's fingers.
