Chapter 18

Marcus held back, although he wanted to draw closer to Tiffany and comfort her. She’d gone through so much. He wanted to hear more of her story and share more of his own with her. His heart had begun to swell with feelings he’d thought were long dead.

But growing close to Tiffany wasn’t an option. They could be friends, nothing more. Not only for his own sake, but for the example he was setting for the youth at church. He’d encouraged the young men not to be swayed by women who weren’t believers. He’d told them about Bree and how their marriage had been blessed because they held the same beliefs.

Although he couldn’t deny the attraction he felt for Tiffany, he couldn’t disregard what he knew to be true and right. He had to hold fast to what he believed, and he needed to rein in his feelings.

Finding himself considering her as anything more than a friend was completely unexpected. Until tonight, he hadn’t thought of another woman romantically since Bree passed. What had triggered these feelings? The romance of the evening, or seeing Tiffany in a totally different light? She’d certainly dazzled not only him, but all those at the ball.

No, he felt quite certain it was none of those things. It was her. Her strength. Her spunk. The way she’d handled herself with grace and confidence in an unfamiliar situation. The way she spoke of her children.

He held her gaze and felt his resolve weakening. She was beautiful, inside and out, and he could easily fall for her. Gulping, he ran his hands down his slacks. “I should call for the car, it’s getting late.”

“Yes.” She grabbed his hand. “Thanks for the evening, Marcus. I know your mum suggested you invite me, but I’m really glad you did.”

He swallowed hard. “I’m glad, too.” He had to stop there. She was growing on him more than he cared to admit.

He called the driver and within moments, the limo arrived. The driver opened the door and Marcus stood back to let Tiffany in first. He slid in beside her, casting her a sideways glance as the limo took off, and offered her a drink.

While they drank coffee and listened to soft music playing through the speakers, Marcus couldn’t remember the last time he’d enjoyed an evening quite so much.

Arriving outside Tiffany’s home, he got out and walked her to the front door where he turned and faced her. “Thank you again for coming with me tonight.”

“And thank you again for inviting me.” Her smile threatened to disarm him.

“I’ll know who to call if I need another date for one of these dos,” he laughed.

“I can’t promise I’d wear a different gown.” She chuckled and then grew serious. “I really enjoyed the evening, Marcus. Thank you.” He thought he saw longing in her eyes, and he swallowed hard.

“So did I, but I won’t keep you any longer.” As he gazed into her eyes, he was tempted to kiss her cheek. Instead he took her hand and lifted it to his lips.
