- About the Author
Kate answered with a smile of her own and Rigg went back to the dishes grinning like a fool. This woman captivated him, there was no getting around it. A plan had been forming in his mind and as soon as he was finished with the dishes, he was going to bring it up. As he worked he prayed for the right words and for the proper way to approach this young woman, this enigma, whod landed so unexpectedly in his life and who was causing his heart to do the strangest things.
So you see Miss Donovan, Sean is welcome here for as long as he needs, but for now I think you girls should go to my folks. We can make the announcement Sunday at church that you need blankets and dishes and things. Im sure by next Sunday youll have all you can use and more, and then youll be able to move back to the little house.
But Mr. Riggs, you havent even checked with your mother. Shes already having us for lunch on Sunday and we cant
Yes you can. She would love to have you. What you cant do is go on freezing the nights away and sharing spoons. The other idea I have is that Ill move home until school is out and you can have this house. Kate stood up so fast she nearly fell.
Put you out of your home? We couldnt possibly!
Kaitlin moved away from the living room sofa where shed been sitting with Rigg and began to pace the room. Putting some space between them helped her to think more clearly.
Didnt this man know he did crazy things to her insides? Kate was not what anyone would term petite, but while on the sofa next to him shed felt like a little girl.
Rigg watched Kaitlin in silence, as did Sean and Marcail. When she stopped by Seans chair and finally looked at Rigg, he spoke.
You dont have to tell me right now what you want to do. But think about your options; there are advantages to both. Here you have everything you need but youd have to relocate when school was out. The little house is more work because youre starting with nothing, but it might feel more like your own home and you wont have to move.
Kaitlin could only nod, understanding his logic but unable to fully concentrate with him in the room. She was silent for a long time.
Have I upset you? Riggs voice was deep and soft, his gaze watchful.
No, Kaitlin wished she didnt sound so breathless. Im just surprised and not sure what to do.
