  • It was probably the first money, other than the air fares, Señor Medena had been able to spend on Alex - and even then he had to do it through Felipa.

    2
    0
  • If she was invited, it was as a guest of Alex, so he would tell her when and if he decided to go.

    2
    0
  • I just thought it was because he was so good looking.

    2
    0
  • I knew because he proved to me that I could trust him with my heart and soul - the way you trust your mother and father.

    2
    0
  • And he loves you this much?

    2
    0
  • It is not for me to say how he spends his money.

    2
    0
  • If he does not take the inheritance, we will not have a home.

    2
    0
  • How could he do such a thing to his own children?

    2
    0
  • Alex defies father now, but he will not win.

    2
    0
  • He will see that the estate does not leave the family.

    2
    0
  • Maybe Alex wanted to be in control because he had been dominated all his life.

    2
    0
  • Your father loves Alex, doesn't he?

    3
    1
  • Besides, after he inherited, he could always put someone in charge of the estate.

    2
    0
  • It wasn't as if he had to be there every living minute of his life.

    2
    0
  • If he hadn't hid it from her all this time, it wouldn't be such a shock.

    2
    0
  • It wasn't the first time she had gone to bed while he was out on a call, but it was the first time she had done so away from home.

    2
    0
  • He stumbled over something and exclaimed before she turned on the lamp beside her bed.

    2
    0
  • He shrugged into the pajama shirt.

    2
    0
  • Lifting the covers, he climbed into bed and moved close to her.

    3
    1
  • But he didn't answer.

    2
    0
  • At least he couldn't blame her for any lack of attention this time.

    2
    0
  • In the morning she showered and dressed before he woke.

    2
    0
  • Then he turned to do it all in reverse.

    2
    0
  • How could he do such a thing in front of Jonathan... and where was Jonathan?

    4
    2
  • He looked pleased with himself until he saw Carmen.

    2
    0
  • The smile faded from his lips and he motioned for Jonathan to join him.

    2
    0
  • He put an arm around her waist and kissed her cheek.

    3
    1
  • He said they as if the horses belonged to the ranch hands.

    2
    0
  • Beautiful he was, but he also looked high spirited.

    2
    0
  • He wasn't going to buy it.

    2
    0
  • If he thought Alex was warming to him, he saw more than she did.

    2
    0
  • He pulled her into his arms.

    2
    0
  • He paused, looking uncomfortable.

    2
    0
  • The grin faded and he started to look frightened.

    2
    0
  • He groaned and captured her lips again.

    3
    1
  • His expression was reflective as he continued to regard her.

    2
    0
  • He had started the clinic shortly after they were married, so his dream was barely being realized.

    2
    0
  • He was realizing the impact the lie had on their relationship.

    2
    0
  • He was growing up and she needed to keep that in mind - and some things off his mind.

    2
    0
  • And then he stepped forward, looking elegant in a dark tuxedo.

    2
    0
  • He offered her an arm.

    2
    0
  • Taking her hand in his, he swept her gracefully into dance.

    2
    0
  • As he swung her around, he spoke into her ear.

    2
    0
  • It was something she had always liked about him, mostly because he was sincere about it.

    3
    1
  • And he's going to take you to his room after the dance.

    3
    1
  • He grinned, the dimple playing below one of his twinkling eyes.

    2
    0
  • It was a good thing he found it so amusing.

    2
    0
  • Yet he too was an excellent dancer - or maybe everyone's dancing skills were so much better than hers that it only appeared so to her.

    2
    0
  • By the expression on his face, he wasn't exactly enjoying the conversation.

    2
    0
  • He looked even more distinguished than usual in his Spanish garb.

    2
    0
  • With sure graceful movements, he danced her around the room.

    2
    0
  • Finally he bowed over her hand.

    2
    0
  • He looked to be about her age and his blond hair was neatly combed into a fashionable style.

    2
    0
  • For some reason it crossed her mind that he would be fun to know.

    3
    1
  • We all knew about his family, but the way he acted, it was as if he wanted to hide them from us.

    2
    0
  • He nodded, his pale eyes darkening enough to twinkle.

    2
    0
  • Don't tell me he's never mentioned me.

    2
    0
  • His hand gently pressed on her waist, drawing her closer as he leaned down.

    2
    0
  • He was so tall there was a vast difference in their height.

    3
    1
  • I worked with him for two years before I discovered who he really was.

    3
    1
  • If he knew who Alex really was, he probably knew more than Alex did.

    3
    1
  • Of course, she knew Alex well enough now to know he didn't like people to hand out information about him.

    2
    0
  • He's always been so alert and in control.

    2
    0
  • He didn't seem to be prompting her.

    2
    0
  • Alex said he... you look so...

    2
    0
  • I never thought of him as being anything else but a salesman until I saw him tonight, but he seems so... comfortable now.

    2
    0
  • More important - would he stay?

    2
    0
  • I guess the only thing he wanted more than that was a good woman and children.

    2
    0
  • He's living his dream.

    3
    1
  • The dance ended and he released her, bending over her hand.

    3
    1
  • He turned and walked away, his head nearly a foot above the others.

    2
    0
  • He is very busy with Tessa tonight, do you think?

    3
    1
  • Why did he hide the fact that his first love would be here tonight?

    2
    0
  • And why didn't he introduce her?

    2
    0
  • Surely he must know that spending so much time with her might prove uncomfortable later.

    2
    0
  • When he spotted her, that sweet chocolate gaze locked on her, visually embracing her from across the room.

    2
    0
  • Then he turned back to his father, who was watching him with interest.

    2
    0
  • If it were totally innocent, he would have volunteered more information.

    2
    0
  • He had loved a singer, but he had married the farmer's daughter.

    2
    0
  • Had he married her to escape his family?

    2
    0
  • He said I was the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen.

    3
    1
  • I guess we could say he hasn't been around much.

    2
    0
  • We could say he has excellent taste.

    3
    1
  • He danced with you that often and didn't tell you his name?

    3
    1
  • Are you going to tell me who he is?

    2
    0
  • His name is Eduardo, and he is my cousin.

    2
    0
  • He just turned twenty-one and he thinks he is a man now.

    2
    0
  • But he wasn't her concern tonight.

    2
    0
  • Alex wouldn't lie, but if he was given enough time to think about it, he could certainly evade the issue.

    2
    0
  • After all, he knew Katie too, but they only wanted the people he knew before he met his wife - excluding his sister.

    2
    0
  • He said he used to work with you.

    2
    0
  • She stood silently watching him until he looked uncomfortable.

    2
    0
  • Maybe he'd think about it next time.

    2
    0
  • He took the glass from her hand and sipped it.

    2
    0
  • He tipped the glass up and drained it.

    2
    0
  • He grinned down at her.

    2
    0
  • He gagged and coughed.

    2
    0
  • He was amazingly good, his fingers plucking the strings with quick nimble strokes.

    2
    0
  • She turned around so he could unzip it - which he did without hesitation.

    3
    1
  • He pushed her against the wall, pulling at her dress again.

    3
    1
  • For a moment he looked confused, and then turned away.

    2
    0
  • He sat down on the edge of the bed, staring at his feet... and then keeled over on the bed.

    2
    0
  • Carmen rushed to him, but found that he was either asleep or passed out.

    2
    0
  • If I didn't want to do what he said I'd tell him so - and he would listen to my reasons.

    2
    0
  • He wants us to do everything he says without question.

    2
    0
  • He was at least equally intrigued by hers.

    3
    1
  • His head snapped up and he eyed her suspiciously.

    2
    0
  • He stood and walked over to the window, staring out it absently.

    2
    0
  • He pulled her close and kissed her forehead.

    3
    1
  • All she was doing was reminding him how powerless he was.

    3
    1
  • He nodded, his gaze drifting off in contemplation.

    3
    1
  • Alex looked stern, and when Carmen met his gaze, he looked down at his plate.

    3
    1
  • A part of her might never forgive him for what he did... and that was a dark part of her personality that she didn't want him to see.

    3
    1
  • He had never mentioned what Christmas had been like at his home.

    2
    0
  • Well, let him think what he wanted.

    2
    0
  • At the moment he looked so much like Alex.

    2
    0
  • Then I have supper ready when he comes home.

    2
    0
  • He stopped thinking about the past and his gaze seemed to come to the present.

    2
    0
  • On the other hand, maybe he was simply surprised that Alondra would want such a tame life.

    2
    0
  • Then he shrugged and followed Jonathan out the door.

    2
    0
  • He glanced up and smiled when she came in, his gaze drifting from her to the door.

    2
    0
  • She immediately told him about the incident with Jonathan and Alfonso and he simply nodded.

    2
    0
  • He might never say anything to Jonathan about it, but Jonathan would know in other ways how he felt.

    2
    0
  • Finally he sighted heavily.

    2
    0
  • Finally he looked down at his lap and let out a long weary sigh.

    2
    0
  • He picked at a thread on the couch, his mind obviously lost in deep thought.

    2
    0
  • Finally he looked up at her.

    2
    0
  • He had final say.

    2
    0
  • He reached out and stroked her cheek.

    2
    0
  • I hope he likes us all.

    2
    0
  • He'd been in a grumpy mood since he got up.

    2
    0
  • He didn't eat much supper.

    2
    0
  • She helped Destiny into her chair and smiled thanks to Alex as he held hers.

    2
    0
  • Hopefully he would be in a better mood after they got back home.

    2
    0
  • Alex seemed to be more comfortable around Morino than he was around his father's family.

    2
    0
  • Did he arrange to have Alex out of the way, or was he simply taking advantage of the situation?

    2
    0
  • He watched anxiously as she dialed the number.

    2
    0
  • He says it's only a few miles away and we'll be right back.

    2
    0
  • The way he did it reminded her of Alex.

    2
    0
  • Maybe he wanted to look at the house too.

    2
    0
  • As he rode into the yard, his expression made it clear that he didn't come to see the house.

    2
    0
  • He scowled at his father and rode up beside Carmen.

    2
    0
  • Morino's uncomfortable gaze shifted from Señor Medena to Alex, and then to Carmen, but he said nothing.

    2
    0
  • He wanted my opinion.

    2
    0
  • No wonder he was so upset.

    2
    0
  • He laughed at that, and his laugh was merry and frank.

    3
    1
  • Then he got into the buggy again and took the reins, and the horse at once backed away from the tree, turned slowly around, and began to trot down the sandy road which was just visible in the dim light.

    3
    1
  • Suddenly he stopped at the foot of a tree.

    3
    1
  • The speech he gave in September 1962, announcing that goal, spent a good amount of time justifying the expense and explaining the urgency.

    11
    9
  • How can he remember well his ignorance--which his growth requires--who has so often to use his knowledge?

    4
    2
  • To the bison of the prairie it is a few inches of palatable grass, with water to drink; unless he seeks the Shelter of the forest or the mountain's shadow.

    4
    2
  • He hardened his heart against the senator who was introducing this set and narrow attitude into the deliberations of the nobility.

    4
    2
  • Not only was Pierre's attempt to speak unsuccessful, but he was rudely interrupted, pushed aside, and people turned away from him as from a common enemy.

    4
    2
  • Glinka, the editor of the Russian Messenger, who was recognized (cries of "author! author!" were heard in the crowd), said that "hell must be repulsed by hell," and that he had seen a child smiling at lightning flashes and thunderclaps, but "we will not be that child."

    3
    1
  • He was respectful of her concerns, but they didn't see eye-to-eye on any of it - except the fact that they both wanted another child.

    2
    1
  • He was simply one of their children.

    2
    1
  • All the same, he was the one who broke the embrace.

    2
    1
  • A live band started playing a waltz and he dropped a hand to her waist.

    2
    1
  • He laughed, swirling her around.

    2
    1
  • He was protective of you before he even met you.

    3
    2
  • He sobered, his face coloring.

    2
    1
  • She stared up at his face, but he ignored her.

    2
    1
  • Finally he shrugged again.

    2
    1
  • He probably thought that she married Alex to realize her dream.

    1
    0
  • He and Jonathan are my cheerleaders now.

    1
    0
  • At the car he opened the door for her.

    1
    0
  • He closed the door and walked around to the other side.

    1
    0
  • He nodded, his expression drifting to uncertain.

    1
    0
  • He nodded, turning to leave the room.

    1
    0
  • He paused at the foot of the stairs and gazed down at her.

    1
    0
  • Something about the way he was watching her felt uncomfortable.

    1
    0
  • His fingers closed around her arm and he firmly pulled her back.

    1
    0
  • She gripped his waist as he turned the horse around and headed back toward the hacienda.

    1
    0
  • When Morino rode far enough ahead so that he couldn't hear their conversation, Carmen finally spoke to Alex.

    1
    0
  • He was just showing me a house he said he was giving as a wedding gift.

    1
    0
  • You're the person he wanted to put in the house.

    1
    0
  • Why would he want me down here?

    1
    0
  • No wonder he was upset in the stair room.

    1
    0
  • Alex had raced to her rescue because he knew she was too naïve to realize what his father was doing.

    1
    0
  • No wonder he had run away from this one.

    1
    0
  • As with Josh, he had simply assumed a relationship.

    1
    0
  • Worse, he had again assumed she was a willing participant.

    2
    1
  • In fact, at the party he had spent an unnecessary amount of time with the woman he almost married – and hadn't even introduced her.

    1
    0
  • He'd be following shortly, trying to make it look like he was the injured party.

    1
    0
  • He had been spending too much time with the television lately.

    1
    0
  • I loved him and he left me.

    1
    0
  • Alex knew very well what he wanted.

    1
    0
  • If he had passed Dulce over, it was because she wasn't what he wanted.

    1
    0
  • He turned to her.

    1
    0
  • For a moment he frowned down at her.

    1
    0
  • She took out some of his and hers so he wouldn't think she was packing to leave him.

    1
    0
  • Finally he turned to her, his voice controlled.

    1
    0
  • But then, he had made it clear from the start that he didn't want any of them in his life.

    1
    0
  • He had tried his best to push them out of it.

    1
    0
  • He hadn't lied about any of it.

    1
    0
  • He had simply avoided it.

    1
    0
  • That wasn't going to be the answer, and he must know that by now.

    1
    0
  • In fact, he must be struggling to float on the ocean of problems this family represented.

    1
    0
  • He needed her support, not her criticism.

    1
    0
  • He had a lot of friends in Texas.

    1
    0
  • He lay down on his back and pulled the covers up.

    1
    0
  • Even in sleep he was irresistible.

    1
    0
  • He was a good husband and father.

    1
    0
  • Wasn't he allowed to be human?

    1
    0
  • He slapped her backside playfully as she walked out the door ahead of him.

    1
    0
  • He scooped her up.

    1
    0
  • Carmen glanced up at Alex and he shrugged.

    1
    0
  • Carmen stiffened and looked up at Alex, but he found something interesting outside to look at.

    1
    0
  • How did Dulce react when he nearly married Tessa?

    1
    0
  • Maybe he was wondering when the other shoe would fall.

    1
    0
  • He had the background and the education, but he obviously didn't have the inclination to adjust to the one being forced on him.

    1
    0
  • When he pulled the covers over her, she stretched out and fell asleep again.

    1
    0
  • She fell asleep again when he left the room.

    1
    0
  • She rolled toward him as he lay down and sighed contentedly as she snuggled against him.

    1
    0
  • If his tone was any indication, he wanted more.

    1
    0
  • He kissed her forehead.

    1
    0
  • He slid an arm under her and gently took her hand in his, planting a warm moist kiss in the center of the palm.

    1
    0
  • The aroma of cologne surrounded him and his breath smelled like he had recently brushed his teeth.

    1
    0
  • He kissed her neck.

    1
    0
  • How did he always manage to do that?

    1
    0
  • He reached out and grasped her arm as she walked by.

    0
    0
  • He flinched visibly as if she had slapped him, his fingers tightening on her arm.

    0
    0
  • She left him there to think about his actions - only he would probably stew on hers instead.

    0
    0
  • Sure, he'd had some rough times, but she had never done anything to make him think she would be unfaithful.

    0
    0
  • He was making noises like his father was the one he didn't trust, but it wasn't that simple.

    0
    0
  • If he trusted her, he wouldn't have been snapping at her as if she had done something wrong.

    0
    0
  • He hadn't said anything to his father.

    0
    0
  • Dropping her arms, she stepped back and wiped her mouth, staring up at him as though he had initiated the incident.

    0
    0
  • I have his name, but he is not my father.

    0
    0
  • Still, if Señor Medena adopted Dulce when she was a baby and raised her, then he was her father - blood relative or not.

    0
    0
  • I know him when he was boy and I love him then.

    0
    0
  • He must come to me.

    0
    0
  • He has you and now he forgets me.

    0
    0
  • As Dulce had pointed out, he was trying to get away from the family.

    0
    0
  • How long did he think he could hide them - or avoid them, for that matter?

    0
    0
  • If Katie hadn't disclosed that incident to her before she met Alex, would he have revealed that facet of his past?

    0
    0
  • He would not have to pay stranger to have his baby.

    0
    0
  • This is the life he was born for.

    0
    0
  • He's been clear enough about that, and yet it's being pushed on him.

    0
    0
  • He does not know what he want.

    0
    0
  • One day he will know.

    0
    0
  • In other words, when he shook himself free of his current family, he would come to Dulce.

    0
    0
  • Was that what Dulce was arguing with him about - that he didn't know what he wanted?

    0
    0
  • For a moment he merely stared at her, his expression unreadable.

    0
    0
  • Then he turned away and rubbed the back of his neck in that way he did when he knew he was wrong but wasn't sure why.

    0
    0
  • Aside from his solemn expression, there was nothing in the way he acted with the children that might indicate anything was wrong between them.

    0
    0
  • And yet, if Señor Medena hadn't been so pushy, would he have accepted the inheritance?

    0
    0
  • If Dulce hadn't chased him so hard, would he have fallen in love with her?

    0
    0
  • Her attitude wasn't as Alex had said, 'sour grapes', and he knew it.

    0
    0
  • He rolled to face her, his other hand seeking her waist and drawing her close.
