After a series of phone calls to Denver and some monstrous lies, Dean managed to finagle a slot on the bike tour, not an easy accomplishment given the short time before the popular event.

He had covered only 23 miles but each mile had given him a sense of accomplishment that astonished him.

We're 'officially' given a job to do and then the brass leaves the room while we discuss how to 'unofficial­ly' get it done.

Before Alex came along, Carmen had never given much thought to a father – only that she wanted children.

Carmen made a face and continued eating, her mind on the information he had given her.

She wasn't ready for that yet and she hadn't completely given up the idea of biological children.

If it was none of his business, why had she explained - given him proof?

Then again, maybe he had given a lot of thought to her argument.

Whatever he wanted – he had given her the money for it.

He had given her no reason to feel this way.

Certainly Alex had given her no reason to be afraid - so far.

Climbing into the car he purchased for her, she headed out with the new bank account he had given her to do some guilt free shopping.

It wasn't as if he hadn't given her time to correct the problem.

To be honest, she hadn't given it much thought or effort.

Grabbing a paper towel, she began wiping the eggs off and putting them in cartons people had given her.

Alex had given her more than a roof over her head and food.

He had given her respect, consideration and love.

He was probably upset that she didn't answer her cell phone, but he had given her strict orders not to use it when she was driving.

She should have walked away and given him a chance to think about it, instead of slapping that awful word from his mouth?

She always seemed to know what was going on inside people's heads, and to anticipate how a person would react to a given circumstance.

Things were uncomfortable between them, but they hadn't given up.

It doesn't look like you've given any of this much thought.

She hadn't given it much thought until now, but Katie was right.

It was the first directive he'd given her since she came home from the hospital.

He had given her in death what he denied her in life.

Given the circumstances, she could forgive him.

Jonny hadn't given them any direction, she assessed.

She'd given it to Talia before she left then reclaimed it after the first wave of the Schism ripped through the Immortal world.

He'd given no more details, a sign something was up.

She finally recognized the shape of the necklace she'd given Darian the day before.

Jonny's words bounced around in her thoughts as she recalled the look Darian had given the portal they stumbled upon.

She'd never forgiven herself for leaving her family, and she'd never given herself permission to move on and be happy.

She didn't move away from him, the first sign she'd given that maybe she had come to terms with their relationship moving to the next level.
