Sophie spun around, but before she could figure out who it was, she was pulled into a tight hug.
Her first instinct was to push away, but then she caught a whiff of that familiar, faint tobacco scent that clung to Colby.
Even though Colby had quit smoking, that scent still lingered on him.
"Colby..."
Sophie felt a lump forming in her throat.
They'd only been apart for a week. In those seven days, she had faced Odie alone, stayed by herself in the sleepy town of Summerfield, and navigated through danger all on her own, never once feeling sorry for herself.
But now, being wrapped up in Colby's arms, all her pent-up emotions rushed to the surface like a tidal wave.
She was scared
that one day she might never see him again.
"I'm here."
Colby's deep voice was thick with emotion.
He tried his best to stay composed, but seeing Sophie standing right in front of him made him tremble.
This time, he had almost lost her.
God knows how terrified he was when he found out at the engagement party that Sophie had been kidnapped.
For over twenty years, he had seen life and death up close, thinking nothing in the world could scare him anymore, until Sophie came into his life.
He was scared
that one day he would lose her and never see her again.
Noticing the scene, the maid quietly exited, making sure to close the door behind her.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
Excellent novel!...
When will you upload the next chapter...
