“At least Leah won’t worry,” Morgan said.
“Holt can’t risk coming out tonight. I’m glad your mother is staying with Lauren.”
“I am grateful for that.”
They didn’t have to go far because there was a downed tree about twenty feet from the cave. Morgan gathered twigs while Justin broke off the bigger branches. Finally loaded down, they lugged their bounty back to the cave. All the time, she couldn’t stop blaming herself for this mess, especially for him having to spend the night away from his daughter…
Plus, she would be spending it with a man who was practically a stranger.
With the aid of the flashlight, Justin placed the twigs and some pine needles in the fire ring and pulled a lighter from his pocket.
“Remind me to thank Holt for keeping this in the Jeep.” He flicked the lighter and touched the flame to the combustible material. After a few seconds, it took off. He quickly added more twigs, until the fire was blazing, illumining their temporary quarters.
He sat down on the log. “Not bad for a city guy, huh?”
“It’s nice and warm.” She spread her hands closer to the flames. “A lot better than being out there.” The wind whistled past the entrance. “I can’t tell you how sorry I am that this happened.”
He shrugged. “You can’t take the blame for the weather.” He turned to her with his silver-gray gaze.
She looked away. “How am I going to tell Holt that I tore out the underside of his Jeep?”
“I don’t think that matters to him as much as your safety.”
“He warned us about the storm.”
“And if I hadn’t delayed us by stopping by the Realtor’s office, we would have gotten an earlier start. But let’s stop with the what-if’s. I’m just grateful that we’re both safe.”
Morgan looked away, but she couldn’t help being drawn to his seductive voice, or his mesmerizing gaze. It had been a long time since a man had made her feel this way.
