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 41: AN ILLUSION OF CONTROL

"Like my entire life was just an illusion." He paused and then seemed to stare right into her eyes. "I thought I was in control of it, but I'm not. I'm just a…passenger. I have no control over anything."

"Baby…" she began, alarmed by his words. "You are the most capable man that I've ever met. There is not a day that goes by that I'm not in constant awe of you. You are a blind man that has accomplished more than most sighted people. You are funny, sexy, talented, and smart--but most of all you are confidant." Tory watched the intense expression on his face and hoped that he was listening and believing that she meant every word.

His expression was uncertain. "Is that what you really see Tory?"

"Yes!"

He paused and then leaned forward and kissed her forehead—she wasn't sure if he was going for her mouth but either was okay.

"Thank you. I needed that," he whispered.
