CHAPTER ELEVEN

The drive to Tommy’s home was filled with a kind of quiet acceptance. Grace had many mixed feelings, although the most dominant feeling was joy. She was happy to give a relationship with Tommy a shot. He was high maintenance, she knew that to be true. Nobody who drove a Ferrari and had the style Tommy Gabrini had couldn’t be anything but high maintenance. But he maintained himself, and was now asking to maintain her, too.

She looked over at him as he turned another dark corner and drove them down another dark road. She knew hooking up with a man like him was risky. He was one of those men who wasn’t about to let his woman dictate to him. He was going to be the boss in this relationship. He would be the one to determine their fate as a couple. She saw how he handled Jillian. Nobody handled Jillian, yet he did so with ease.

She stared at his profile as he drove. She could lose herself in him. She saw it that night, when he made love to her, and she saw it even clearer now. She could fall so hard for this man that she might forget where the bottom really was. She might keep moving the goal post, keep moving the line, keep allowing him to control every aspect of her life until she wouldn’t know where he ended and she began. And because of her love for him, and devotion to him, he could have all of the power. He could take advantage of her on every turn, and irreparably break her heart.

And the first false move he made, especially if that move involved a female and anything that could harm her self-respect, she had to be strong enough to walk away right away. She couldn’t hang in there like she did with Cam. Because if she stayed this time, with this man, she might not be able to ever leave him.

Tommy could tell she was growing more apprehensive the further away from Moors, and thus her comfort zone, they traveled. He wasn’t exactly a ball of confidence, either. He just agreed to exclusivity with this woman. He just agreed to work on this relationship to see if it could lead to marriage. To marriage! And he still was reeling. He still couldn’t believe he just agreed to any of it. But he had. There was something about Grace that made him want her above all others.

And he made up his mind so easily too. That was the amazing part to Tommy. All he had to do was see her again and then start thinking about another man touching her, being with her, lying in bed with her, and he was ready. He was ready to see this through.

He stopped at a red light and looked over at her. She’d been
