- When Alex walked through the door, they were standing by the table, waiting on him.
- When Alex returned to the table, he sat in the chair Carmen held for him.
- More important, would there ever be a time when he stopped hiding things from her?
- Why would he need to lie when he could simply tell her that it didn't concern her?

- But how could she do that when he was there every day?
- The next morning she paused at her door when she heard Yancey talking to someone.
- It's almost dry and I hate it when it gets all wrinkled.

- Her attention was diverted a few minutes later when Yancey arrived.
- Whatever his thoughts, they were interrupted when Tammy sped into his arms like a bullet.
- When Yancey's attention diverted to his mother, she simply shrugged.
- One evening, when Tammy was in bed and the three of them were relaxing in the family room, the telephone rang.
- It was something she had smelled at the University ... but when and where?
- She was searching through her house for some unidentified object when a shadow emerged from the dark.
- When Sarah learned of her plan to go to the house and pick up some things, she insisted there was no reason to stay.
- Yancey wasn't back yet when she left, but she didn't need his approval.
- When he saw her, he dropped to her side, deep concern in his eyes.
- I knew it when he caught you alone beside the pool.
- Then when I caught him spying on me at the restaurant in Huntsville...
- If Howard hadn't come along when he did, Allen might have killed you.
- When he finally broke away, the words escaped her mouth.
- When she decided Yancey wasn't around, she started down the path, keeping close to the trees without breaking her promise not to wander in the woods.
- No one was in sight when she reached the building, but the door was open.
- Cautiously, she crept up to the door and peered around it, jerking her head back instinctively when she spotted Yancey unlocking a door to an inner office.
- She held her breath while she tugged at the window, letting it out in a sigh of relief when the sash lifted quietly.
- When will you be able to take me to get my car?
- Let me know when you're through talking.
- His expression softened when he saw she had been crying.
- If she had asked about the building when we passed it, I might have figured she had never seen it, but she pretended she didn't notice.
- It must have helped, at least to some degree, because when he spoke again outside her door, his voice was controlled.
- The doorbell rang and she felt a rush of panic when she heard Sarah answer the door.
- When I saw you standing there in the road, so beautiful, your hair flowing around you like morning mist, I couldn't let you walk away.
- Later, when everyone had left, Yancey took Lisa's hands in his.
- Lisa said that when she was choking, you stood by and did nothing.
- There is something about the way she looks at you when she needs your help – so vulnerable.
- He couldn't understand why she would say that when she'd been living in his house so long.
- Lisa had time between when Howard left and Giddon arrived to call the police, but she didn't.
- And when she's surrounded with his work, she still doesn't recognize him.
- When I'm not studying medicine, I'm practicing it at the hospital.
- Kind of makes you wonder what they were up to when she was my age, doesn't it?
- When Adrienne walked into the lounge, Roxanne was slipping out of her coat.

- I never know when to believe you.
- When they all set down to supper, Brandon was still brooding.
- When he finally spoke, his voice was crisp.
- When he finally lifted his head and spoke to Adrienne, his voice was devoid of any emotion.
- All I know is... all of the sudden you were walking away from me - right when I needed you the most.
- Especially when it isn't necessary.
- Every night she dreamed about him - about the way his voice sounded when her ear was on his chest.
- Hadn't she been supportive of Brandon when he made his foolish move of dropping out of college?

- He paused when she turned sharply.
- If and when she got married, it would be for love.
- She stumbled up the dune behind him and stopped when he held out a hand.
- What would happen when an equally good-looking woman tempted him?
- When she still didn't respond, he shook his head.
- When she woke again, daylight was streaming in through the cave opening.
- When the ache had left her legs numb, and her breath was no longer coming in gasps, they started out again - across sand dunes - up and down.
- When she opened her eyes again, it was dark.
- When the last horse had been gone for a few minutes, he stood.
- The big bay was breathing hard when they stopped to rest.
- It was bright daylight when she woke.
