She should turn him down. She didn’t want to take any more of his time, especially when this wasn’t going anywhere, but truth be told it might be nice to not be alone for a while. Not that she was completely alone.

Jenn had become a good friend, but she had a kid and a husband. It would be nice to go with someone to L’Anse aux Meadows. Still, it would be a whole weekend, not just a simple day trip.

“It’s a two-day trip,” she pointed out.

He shrugged. “I could use a break too. Let me take you. I don’t mind. I’ll drive, you book the hotel rooms.”

Jo did enjoy his company, and they were having a baby together. Maybe this would be a good way for them to bond.

They could be friends. Even if they had shared that illicit kiss that neither of them had been expecting.

That kiss was anything but friendly.

And just thinking about it now made her skin heat, and she hoped she wasn’t blushing too brightly, but Henrik’s eyes were on the road so she was safe. At least he did mention that they should get two hotel rooms and not share, which was a slight disappointment on one hand, but a big relief on the other.

“You don’t have to come,” she said again.

“No. I’ll take you,” Henrik said, firmly. “It’s a done deal. No more arguments.”

“Fine. It sounds great.”

And it did.

Since David had died, she’d isolated herself from a lot of people, and it was nice to have someone to spend time with. It was nice to talk to someone. She wanted Henrik to be her friend and nothing more.

Really?

Jo shook that thought away.

It didn’t matter that the night after their kiss she hadn’t got a wink of restful sleep, that every time she closed her eyes all she could feel was his arms around her. The way his gentle touch had made her body quiver and her heart race.

And when he kissed her, she had melted.

Just like that first time he had kissed her. Of course, a month ago she’d thought it was a harmless one-night stand. She had been so wrong about that.

It would be just easier to keep her distance from him, push him away, but she couldn’t do that. For the sake of her child, their child, she had to try and make an effort to have Henrik in her life, and being friends was the easiest way.

Even though that way was risky for her heart.
