Moving Memoirs - Reader Service · Moving Memoirs 7 BONUS BUCKS BETWEEN ME AND THE RIVER by Carrie Host (A Memoir) Carrie Host knows that the diagnosis of a life-threatening illness

were also cuffed and led to a police car. It was over. Gulping sobs racked Tabby’s body. Jon was safe. She wrapped her arms around him, clinging to him and wanting to never let go, but deep inside she knew she would have to. She couldn’t go back to being just his assistant. Because she loved him.

…“There you are!” Jon exclaimed as Tabby walked into his office five days later. He’d missed her terribly, but had tried to understand when she’d told him she needed a few days to get her head together after that horrible night. Her sister had been taken away and admitted back to the psychiatric hospital. Her accomplices would be doing time for kidnapping in the Massachusetts State Prison. And Jon had his cash back. But most importantly, Tabby was safe. Tabby’s slight smile didn’t reach her blue eyes as she stopped just inside the doorway. Able to read the nuances of her mood, concern raced through him. He rose, came around his desk and stopped in front of her. Reaching for her hands, he said, “You’re upset. Talk to me.” She dropped her gaze. “I…” She took a deep breath and lifted her eyes to meet his. The determination and resignation he saw in her gaze confused and concerned him. His pulse picked up speed. From the inside of her purse she handed him an envelope. “What’s this?” “My resignation.” His stomach plummeted. “Your… I don’t understand.” “After everything I put you through I can’t continue to work for you. It wouldn’t be right.” “That you put me through?” He drew her to him. “You have nothing to feel guilty about. This wasn’t your doing.” For a moment she seemed to melt into his embrace but then she pushed back to stare

into his face. “I shouldn’t have involved you. I had no right to ask you to put your life at risk for me.” “You didn’t ask, remember? I insisted.” He cupped her cheek with his hand. “I’d walk through fire for you, Tabby. Don’t you know that?” Her eyes widened. “You would?” “Yes.” Love filled his heart and echoed in his voice. “I love you, Tabitha Grant. I think I’ve been in love with you since the first day you stormed into my office saying I needed you working for me. I didn’t realize then just how much I do need you. I can’t imagine my life without you. You’ve shown me what real faith is.” Her eyes brightened with tears. “I love you, too.” Words to live by. “Tabby, the only way I’ll accept your resignation is if you agree to become Mrs. Spangler.” A small gasp escaped from her parted lips. “You’re asking me to marry you?” Her stunned expression made him smile. “I am. What do you say?” Joy beamed in her expression. “I say yes.” Then a mischievous glint entered her gaze. “On one condition.” He arched an eyebrow. “Negotiating a marriage proposal, Miss Grant?” She grinned. “Yes, Mr. Spangler.” He grinned back. “Let’s hear your condition.” “I get to keep my job.” “Yes!” Delighted to the tips of his soul, he dipped his head and captured her lips, sealing the best deal of his life.

behind his throne. So why should I care what Alakkulian society thinks of my choice of bride? When have I ever allowed outside opinions to dictate my own?”“Never,” she said, her voice catching.But she hadn’t thought she was worthy of him, either. Was that why his dismissal had hurt so much? Because she’d believed his low opinion of her was accurate?“I let others poison me against you,” he continued, “like a man far lesser, far weaker than I would like to believe I am would do.” His mouth tightened. “Safir will never work for me again. The others who dared speak against you will regret it. This I promise you.”His warm hands found hers and held them, and he shifted closer, gazing at her in a way she was afraid to believe. Surely she was dreaming. But he did not disappear when she blinked.“I never saw you coming,” he whispered. “I looked up from the middle of my gray, dutiful life and there you were, Lucy. I had no idea how to handle it. I can’t possibly imagine the misery I put you through. I can never make up for it. If you want to leave me, you have every right and reason. I won’t fight you.”There was a part of her that wanted to do just that. A part of her that wanted nothing more than to hurt him. To make him pay. But that part was growing smaller by the second.Because she loved him. Even after all he’d done, she loved him far more than she wanted his pain. Far more, even, than her own deep wounds. She had long believed that made her the worst kind of fool. But maybe, she thought now, just maybe love was bigger than foolishness, too.“And what,” she asked, her voice the barest whisper, “if I don’t want to leave you, after all?”Powerful emotion moved across his face then, making his beautiful eyes gleam silver. His hands tightened around hers.“Then I will tell you that I love you,” he rasped out. “That I always have, from the first moment I met you. And I will never be ashamed of that again.”She said his name and tasted salt, only then realizing that she was crying.

“I have never had any use for love,” he said urgently, hoarsely. “Marriage is supposed to be for political alliance. For power and greed. Love is for fairy tales.”“And for us,” she whispered. She leaned forward and pressed her lips to his forehead. “For us, Rafi.”When she moved to his mouth, he met her. Their kisses were hesitant at first, then sweeter, hotter, longer. Lucy felt the fire build within her again, shot through this time with the wild joy that he loved her.Rafi loves me.She knew that life with this man would never be easy, but as long as he loved her, they could make it work. Would make it work.And then there was no more thought, only sensation.Much later, they lay stretched out in front of the fire in the shade of the makeshift Christmas tree he’d put together just for her. Rafi looked down into her face and shuddered slightly at how close he’d come to losing her.“I don’t know how you will ever forgive me,” he said fiercely. “I will never forgive myself.”Lucy smiled, her brown eyes shining with the love he did not deserve, the happiness on her lovely face humbling. “You will have to work at it, I think,” she said, her voice light. She tangled her fingers in his hair, and drew him down to her. “Every day. It will be hard and difficult work, Rafi, but then, you are a very determined man. I have faith that someday, you will make it up to me in full.”She was teasing, he knew, but he took her words with all the force of a blood oath. He met her gaze.“I will,” he vowed. “Believe me, Lucy. I will.”She searched his eyes for a moment, her own wide and gleaming, and then nodded. She smiled again.“Then kiss me,” she whispered. “It’s Christmas.”
