Missing In The Mountains. Julie Anne Lindsey
a bite of bunless burger into her mouth. “I got really fat.”
Sawyer let his gaze trail over her, indulging himself in the admiration of her new curves. “Agree to disagree.”
“I’m working on getting back in shape now,” she assured him. “It feels good but getting chubby with a purpose was fun too.” Her lips twitched, nearly accomplishing a smile.
By the time dinner was done, and Sawyer had cleared the table, some of the smoky air between them had cleared, as well. Emma joined him at the sink in companionable silence as they washed and dried dishes by hand before putting them away.

Easy to let himself think there could a future for them, that he could somehow make up for his absence when it had counted most.
