“You know, Max. I'm not sure I do.”

Max's eyes narrowed and Abigail stiffened in his arms. Eliot leaned in to kiss the warm exposed flesh of her neck then continued talking. “
Love
seems a small, mean little word sometimes, don't you think?”

Max shook the ice in his glass and thought of the woman in the bed upstairs who had just delivered his two children. “It is. Quite.”

“It's a meager syllable to embody the full satisfaction of a man's soul. The final arrival at an end that could never be considered because of its seeming impossibility. I think I'd survive, walk the earth, whatever, without Abigail, but I don't think I would
live
. Does that make sense? Does that mean I
love
her?”

Abigail was grateful she was already on the couch because the lower half of her body was weak and useless. She burrowed her face into Eliot's chest and wished she could crawl up the face of him.

Max smiled again. “Yes. I think that's a rough approximation. Add in a dollop of stomach-flipping terror and the occasional loss of sanity and I think you're well on your way to a perfectly apt definition of
love
.”

If the Shoe Fits

Megan Mulry

The only thing worse than being in the spotlight is being kept in the dark…

With paparazzi nipping at his heels, Devon Heyworth, rakish brother of the Duke of Northrop, spends his whole life hiding his intelligence and flaunting his playboy persona. Fast cars and faster women give the tabloids plenty to talk about.

American entrepreneur Sarah James is singularly unimpressed with “The Earl” when she meets him at a wedding. But she's made quite an impression on him. When he pursues her all the way across the pond, he discovers that Miss James has no intention of being won over by glitz and glamour—she's got real issues to deal with, and the last thing she needs is larger-than-life royalty mucking about in her business…
