She loved him for it. \u201cWhile you get ready for bed, I\u2019ll set up Boggle.\u201d \u201cBoggle?\u201d It was a spelling game they often played on snowy winter nights at the ranger\u2019s cabin after they were married. Just the mention of it brought back myraid memories that made her heart turn over. \u201cDid you find it in the lounge?\u201d He flashed her one of his heart-stopping smiles.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo. I brought it from home in the hope that you\u2019d play it with me.\u201d It had been on the tip of her tongue to refuse him on the grounds that she was too tired. But secretly, she was afraid to spend any more time with him. Every conceivable barrier which she\u2019d taken the greatest pains to erect in order to counteract his power, was in danger of being knocked aside by an unexpected look of desire igniting his dark blue eyes, or the compelling curve of his male mouth at a vulnerable moment.<\/p>\n

But the therapy had to be working, because she didn\u2019t have the heart to turn him down. In all honesty, after eight months\u2019 deprivation, she craved every moment with him. \u201cAll right. I\u2019ll change and be with you in a minute.\u201d Without glancing at him, she hurried over to the drawers and drew out the things she needed, but one item was missing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hung your robe on the bathroom door.\u201d He read her mind, just like he used to do. \u201cThank you,\u201d she said and quietly slipped into the bathroom, her pulse beating far too fast to be healthy. Heavens! She felt much more shy than she had on her wedding night. How many times had they made love during their six-year marriage? At least several thousand anyway.<\/p>\n

They were expecting a baby, yet she could easily be that same virginal bride who was anticipating their wedding night with all that excitement and maidenly fears that were part of her heritage being brought up by nuns. Tortured by the nature of her thoughts, she showered and prepared for bed, praying that Cord might have started watching a show on TV while he waited for her. Hopefully he\u2019d be too engrossed to care about a game and she could go right to sleep.<\/p>\n

Weight: Nine pounds, four ounces Height: twenty-three inches long\u2026 The doctors had told Cord McKnight he would never father a child. The doctors had been wrong. For on his last night with Ashley, a miracle had occurred\u2014a million-to-one chance\u2026 And now it seemed his estranged wife was nine months pregnant! Only, Ashley had walked out on Cord for good reason. She had never doubted that Cord would make a perfect father\u2014it was his skills as a husband she’d begun to doubt.<\/p>\n

All the evidence suggested that he was having an affair. But Cord was determined to hold on to his newfound family, even if it meant holding out for another miracle\u2014getting his wife back! 1kitap1.com\/en CHAPTER ONE When the phone rang, Ashley McKnight got up clumsily from the kitchen table. She\u2019d been folding clothes which had just come out of the dryer and hurried to answer it, afraid it might waken Mrs. Bromwell who had finally fallen asleep, hopefully until morning. Though Ashley turned off the elderly woman\u2019s phone every night, the second extension in the kitchen lay on the other side of the wall of the comfortable apartment.<\/p>\n

Any noise past ten o\u2019clock could disturb her because she suffered from crippling arthritis and the medicine didn\u2019t always blot out the pain. But she was such a dear soul, she hardly ever complained. The only people who would phone her this late would be Mrs. Bromwell\u2019s family to see how their mother was doing, and how Ashley was faring.<\/p>\n

They had a replacement for Ashley, realizing that if she went into early labor, she\u2019d have to leave their mother on a moment\u2019s notice. But her doctor expected her to go full term, which meant she had four more weeks until the baby was due\u2014four weeks to earn a little more money.<\/p>\n

Besides needing to outfit a layette, she had attorney fees to pay. She\u2019d signed the papers. Now it was Cord\u2019s turn to sign so that their divorce would be final right away.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
