With a smile, I rested my head against the door and put the letter next to me. I remember our first date exactly. Of course in that moment I didn’t know just how bad Jace was struggling financially. In fact, I didn’t find out until about three months into our relationship, and even then, it was only because I overheard him talking to a bill collector.

How I wished in that moment that he would have allowed me to wait for him. While I understood how important it was for him that he gave me my freedom… I can only imagine how differently our lives would be if I would have stayed. And maybe God wanted things to be this way. Maybe me leaving was the push he needed to do whatever was necessary to make something happen with his books. I know for sure our breakup led to me getting more serious about opening our boutique.

I couldn’t chance overthinking and wondering what if. While this stroll down memory lane was nice, I couldn’t afford to think about it too much. Because then I would feel. Then I would act. Then I would surrender. And I couldn’t do that to Evan.

“How do I write you back?”

“Here.”

Turning and sitting on my knees, I opened the door. Unable to resist, I smiled the moment my eyes landed on Jace. I hadn’t seen him in literally two days. He’d been respecting my wishes and keeping his distance until now… and I was honestly glad he’d bucked the system. There was nothing more pleasing to the eye than Jace Kingsley – that… I would never deny.

“Thank you.”

With a nod, he stood. “Just, slide it under the door when you get done. I’m tired of sitting on this hard ass floor.”

With a chuckle I agreed and closed the door behind me, then walked over to the small writing desk in the corner to start penning my reply. As much as I hated to admit it, communicating with him in this manner had excitement pulsing through my veins. Trying my hardest to reel that excitement in, I inhaled a deep breath as I pressed the top of the pen.
