Hunter's Vow
SUSAN MEIER
Литагент HarperCollins EUR
Abby Conway spent the past seven years in Brewster County waiting for her first love, Hunter Wyman, to ride back into town. Her fantasies painted him as a knight on a white horse. Reality revealed a polished businessman. Either way, Abby knew that when Hunter discovered the secret she'd kept hidden, he would try to reclaim what was his.As Hunter's persuasive gray eyes and strong arms stirred up a soul-searching passion, Abby found herself torn between temptation and self-preservation. She didn't want his grandiose gifts of reconciliation. She wanted the one promise her beloved wasn't ready to give–she wanted Hunter's Vow to forever love and cherish.
“I know why you’re here,” she said quietly.
Hunter sighed heavily. “Oh, God. I’m not quite sure where to start…what to say.” He gave her another genuine, heartfelt smile.
The tenderness of his expression hit her right in the heart, but despite her fantasies she recognized she couldn’t take that personally. Any kindness Hunter extended was merely courtesy necessary for good communications and a good relationship for Tyler’s sake….
“Tyler’s at school right now, but he’ll be home about three.”
Hunter’s brow furrowed. He stared at her. “Excuse me?”
She cleared her throat. “Tyler, our son, is at school right now. But he’ll be home about three.”
Hunter grabbed Abby’s wrist to interrupt her. “Tyler? Our son?” he repeated, his face white with shock. “We have a son?”
She wet her dry lips. “Hunter…”
“Abby, do you really believe I would have left you?” He caught her gaze. “That I would have left a child…my son?”
