Sons of Lyra: Runaway Hearts (8 page)

She smiled.

“
I’ll never be
sad when we’re together,” she whispered.

He held her tighter and
she felt warm inside when she sensed all his love for her and his
need to protect her. She’d never felt so happy.

He was happy
too.

“
If that’s the
case,” he whispered back at her. “I’ll never let you out of my arms
again.”

She’d like
that.

She would stay in his
arms.

Forever.

The
End

About the
author

Felicity Heaton
is a great believer in love at first sight and the romantic ideal.
Having grown up reading extensively, she developed a deep love of
classical literature, ranking Jane Eyre, North & South, and
Persuasion amongst her all time favourite reads. The most romantic
moment of her life was when her husband got down on bended knee on
the steps of Sacré Coeur, Paris, at night in front of several
hundred spectators and proposed. She was too drunk on love, and
subsequently champagne, to care about the audience. All she could
see was the man that she loved. A writer of emotion and life, she
always strives to touch a chord of familiarity in her readers and
give them characters they can love and a read to
remember.
