placed precisely beside the envelope. Her hand shook as she turned to the tabs clearly marking where she needed to sign. After signing and initialing each page, she threw down the pen and rose from the chair.

โ€œPack your bags and get the hell out of my house, now. The money will be in your account as soon as this is filed.โ€ Without a word, she hurried upstairs.

Chapter Forty-Six

Brad sat out on the front porch, breathing in the cool night air on this unusually warm spring night, smiling to himself about the way things had turned out. The day heโ€™d received the news in Keithโ€™s office flooded him with sweet, overwhelming relief. To have Crystal gone and out of their lives was like a black, tension-filled, cloud dissipated. Even the sunshine seemed to beam brighter around them. Crystal had left town right after signing the papers, leaving instructions for the rest of her belongings to be sent to a condo in Seattle.

Keith filed the papers that day. He pulled strings to have a judge sign the divorce decree a few days later. Thirty-one days and Brad would be a free man.

For the first time in his life, he felt as if he was living with his eyes wide open. โ€œYou know, Dad, Iโ€™m glad you and Mom are going to stay for a bit.โ€

Bradโ€™s father clinked his glass to Bradโ€™s. โ€œHereโ€™s to a good woman, your son, and finally getting it right.โ€ He swallowed the single malt scotch, and turned when the screen door squeaked.

โ€œAre the kids asleep?โ€ asked Brad.

Emily nodded, and rested her hand on his shoulder.

When he looked up into the passion burning in her sparkling eyes, a lump formed deep in Bradโ€™s throat. She took his breath away.

โ€œIโ€™ll leave you two lovebirds alone.โ€ Rodney stopped and rested his hand fondly on Emilyโ€™s shoulder, looking down on her as a father would his daughter.

โ€œThanks, Dad.โ€ Brad reached around and lifted Emily onto his lap.

โ€œMmm, yep, all fast asleep.โ€

He leaned his head down and kissed the tip of her nose. She still couldnโ€™t believe heโ€™d done it; showing up, ordering his men to pack up all their things and move them back out to the ranch. He hesitated, for only a moment, and informed her he loved her. And as soon as both their divorces were final, he planned to marry her.

The way he looked at her, with such everlasting desire, friendship and love, she knew heโ€™d just handed her his heart. For him, it was a rare gift of trust.

Sitting on his lap now, his fingers linked with hers, she knew they had a future filled with possibility.

โ€œYou never answered me, Em.โ€

She slid around on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck. โ€œAnswer you about what?โ€

โ€œI think I asked you to marry me. And youโ€™ve left me hanging.โ€

She caressed his face with the back of her fingers, unable to remember her heart ever being so full. โ€œIf I recall, you informed me we were getting married. But the answerโ€™s yes.โ€

She snuggled a little closer, she couldnโ€™t wait to share the news with him. She took his hand and placed it on her stomach as a slight blush rose in her cheeks. The doctor said the baby would be born in November.

Read Excerpt from Fallen Hero

Diana pushed aside the creamy, lace curtain and gazed out on a yard adorned in pinks and frothy whites, with ribbons and bows and enough flowers to decorate the entire county. The midday sun had turned the sky a deep blue, and mixed with the flowers and miles of open land, it would seem to anyone as if they had stepped into paradise. Several long tables were draped with
