Home Yet

Seeing Felix and Joanna finally escorted out in disgrace, Linsey exhaled, the tension in her shoulders easing.

She turned to the bystanders who had defended her. Several older women offered her knowing looks and firm advice.

"Young lady, don't go soft on that kind of man. Once a jerk, always a jerk."

"That's right. Married or not, never look back."

"When you choose a partner, make sure you see him for who he really is before giving your heart away."

Linsey forced a small, wry smile but nodded obediently. "I appreciate it. I'll keep that in mind."

She had been an orphan her whole life. No parents had ever given her such words of wisdom.

For years, she had poured all her love, all her dreams, into Felix, believing he could give her the warmth of a real family.
