Promise Me Forever (Debbie Macomber Classics)
““Come on in. The water’s fine.”
“I could hate you for this,” Sloan growled.
“I’ve been hated by better men than you,” Joy informed him cheerfully. She didn’t doubt Sloan; her job was to channel some of his angry intensity into the exercises. Clara had told her how much Sloan had loved the pool, swimming laps early every morning. He would again if she had anything to do with it. “Put him in the water, Paul.”
She turned and dove into the blue depths, feeling slightly guilty that Paul was left to ...deal with the abusive end of Sloan’s temper. By turning away she offered him the privacy to climb into the water without her seeing Paul lift him. His pride had taken enough of a beating lately, and she didn’t want to make this any more difficult than it already was.
When she surfaced at the far end of the pool, Joy noticed Paul was standing back from the pool’s edge, his look unsure.
“That’ll be all.” Treading water, she raised one hand and waved, indicating she wanted him to leave.MoreLess

This book was extraordinary! I particularly enjoyed the parallel relationship between the sea gull LJ and Sloane. Very beautiful....Write Review:
