Chapter 31

"Did you have a good day?" Jim asked from the couch.

"It wasn't the day I was expecting." Leigh hung up her coat. "But I think it was the day I needed."

For a long time, she didn't think he would answer. She determined not to nag at him, but she also wasn't going to let go until she had to.
