Chapter Eighteen

Josh sat down at his computer and hit Print . His sermon for tomorrow morning was complete and it was a good one, he could feel it. It was about finding everyday miracles and recognizing them for what they were—not coincidences, not flukes. God intervened in everyone’s lives, and part of the trick was detecting it. As the printer churned out its pages, he let his mind drift to the very subject that he had forbid it from exploring over the last few days—Regan.

He loved being with her, and she seemed to have fun when they were together. She was someone he looked forward to spending more time with. Was she “The One?” The one God intended for him? He had no idea, but he was sure willing to explore the options further.

Except that, at the coffee shop, her mood had changed from happy and carefree, to silent and tense, in the space of a minute or less. And he was quite sure that he’d instigated the drastic sweep. When would he ever learn? He sighed and kicked back in his desk chair. No wonder he’d never married. He was clueless when it came to dating. When he thought back to how he’d gone on and on about wanting a woman to love to make his life complete—to Regan yet, the new woman in his life—he could stomp on his own foot.

What was he thinking? Regan was recently divorced and still dealing with that pain, and here he comes, a little over a month into their new relationship, talking about falling in love and getting married.

Idiot!

Plus, how sure could he be? If he really examined his feelings, he’d have to admit he had doubts about Regan being the right one for him. He and his future mate (if he ever got one) would have to present a united front to the church—a team—two people with strong faiths to lead his congregation members to lives devoted to God. Regan couldn’t do that. At least, not right now. Did God intend to change that?

He shook his head and rubbed his whiskered chin with his hand. Honesty may be the best policy, but he really needed to learn how to rein it in sometimes. No wonder she’d gotten that scared look in her eye, and she’d practically headed for the hills. Who could blame her? They were at different spots in their lives, he and Regan. She was recovering from a bad breakup, and he’d been waiting for Ms. Right for a good long time now.

And yet, there was something irresistible about Regan. And despite the differences in what they were looking for, he intended to stick around to find out if the two of them could write that great American love story. If he hadn’t completely scared her away.

He collected his pages and was sticking them in his folder when the phone on his desk rang. Maybe it was Regan, and he’d have a chance to set her mind at ease.
