Regret Novel 215

Charlotte froze, stunned by the tenderness in Evander’s gesture. She’d never imagined he was capable of something so gentle–especially not toward her.

The memory flickered back to Charlotte. Back then, she was newly his wife, and she’d dreamed of a real honeymoon together.

She’d picked out the perfect place–Lake Zurich in Switzerland.

She’d imagined them touring vineyards, making wine together, and visiting the

world–famous Rhine Falls.

Every detail, she had planned. She’d been so happy, so hopeful–until she finally brought it up to him, and he shut her down with cold indifference.

The memory stung, and she felt a prickle at the tip of her nose.
