Love's New Bloom by Simone Hastings

Chapter 86 Driven Mad With Thoughts of Her

Ian’s pleading and all the memories the house brought her messed up Erin’s thoughts. She clearly knew that he was in the past, but she’d be lying if she said that she did not feel anything from his change in attitude.

“Stop it, just stop it!” Erin’s tears fell uncontrollably as she leaned limply in his embrace.

It wasn’t until the latter half of the night that Ian finally lay down in exhaustion beside her.

Tracy stared longingly at the man fast asleep in her bed. She trailed her finger lightly across his handsome face, committing it to memory…

long I’ve waited for you, lan? I believed that you’d come back for me. And tonight, you really did! It felt like nothing but a dream to me! Life has been meaningless without you. All this while, I thought that it was only your money I was after, but now, I have finally come to see that I’ve fallen in love with you…I can’t live without you…” Tracy’s whispers ended up in sobs, and she buried herself
