In her solitary life she eats alone and daydreams about having a handsome boyfriend who could accept all of her. Daily she finds herself running to catch her bus and knowing that she is the laughing stock of the other commuters. And then one day she literally finds herself ‘falling’ into the lap of one of the commuters; an exotically handsome white man. Tory finds that she is unable to stop thinking about him and daydreaming about the life he must live. But Mr. Gorgeous must be either married or gay because she sees him dismissing the attention of gorgeous women left and right. Never in a million years would she ever guess that hers was the only attention he was interested in… In this multicultural romance, Pepper Pace weaves a story that takes her readers through the ups and downs of personal insecurities, cultural differences, and of course a lesson to be learned; that love is totally and completely blind.

Chapter 37: SCANDALOUS BEHAVIOR

Dr. Hendrix and his team of doctors put Lee through comprehensive tests and then announced that he seemed very healthy despite being a bit groggy.

"I have a headache," he announced.

"Of course," Dr. Hendrix replied. "I'll have pain medicine placed in your IV."

"When can we leave?"

The doctor's eyes flitted to Tory and then he raised a brow. "I'd like to monitor you for the next 24 hours and if all is well then I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to go home tomorrow. I'm not your fiancée's doctor but I will confer with him."

Lee squeezed her hand gently and then a moment later the doctors left to speak to the other members of the family.

"Where are you staying?" Lee said to his parents once the room was empty.

Lee's father responded in Portuguese but Lee interrupted him. "Daddy, speak in English, please. Tory doesn't understand yet." She smiled at the word 'yet.' The older man gave her an apologetic smile.

"We forget easily."
