Josh was beginning to have a good idea why he was making her feel uncomfortable.

However, now was not the time to explore their feelings.

The woman was badly damaged, and he wondered now why he hadn’t seen what had been staring him right in the face for months. He’d need to take a big step back from her. But at the same time he recognised an almost overwhelming need inside him to protect her, to look after her.

“Have you talked to anyone about it? Therapists? Your GP?”

She cleared her throat as she shook her head.

“Not yet.”

And by that brave little tilt of her chin she wasn’t happy he was interfering in her life.

Fair enough.

“Are you sure you want me to work on the house?”

Now her eyes met his and for the first time he didn’t see fear, but a determined courage that hurt the heart.

Poor baby.

“Yes. I need it finished on time and within budget. Then I can sell part of it or rent it out. I haven’t decided yet. I need to secure Boo’s future.”

At the mention of her baby, he couldn’t help but smile. The kid was gorgeous.

“You’re doing a magnificent job with her, Jan. She’s happy, contented and thriving. You should be very proud.”

She blinked when he called her Jan but for the first time she gave him a genuine smile in return.

“She’s the love of my life. I’m blessed to have her.” Then her brow creased. “Will you consider staying on as my architect?”

“As long as we keep it strictly business. Agreed?”

He’d shocked her and was certain he saw a hint of regret as well as relief in those big blue eyes.

But she held out her hand.

He took it and felt the tremble and wondered what the hell he was doing.

Why couldn’t he simply walk away?

“Agreed,” she said.
