Page 83 of Love Somebody Like You

“Really? The Darcys want to rent your land?”

He nodded. “So we don’t have to sell.”

Beams of sunlight burst from her smile. “I’m so glad. God answers prayers, doesn’t he?”

“He sure does.” Like this woman, whose faith and confidence stirred his own. “Like you.”

“Me?”

“You’re the answer to a prayer I didn’t know I’d prayed.”

“Oh, you sweet man.”

He swooped in for a celebratory kiss, which soon led to the kinds of kisses he didn’t feel her parents would appreciate seeing. “You want to go soon?”

“I drove here, so I can meet you back at home.”

“Home?”

She smiled, stroking a hand down his bristled cheek. “I love you, Jackson Reilly.”

“You do?” he whispered, as his heart started thumping with the joy-filled refrain of a certain song by Keith Urban.

“I do.” She pressed a kiss to his lips as if to seal her words. “So wherever you are, then that sounds like home to me.”
