Will’s love was constant, unyielding, but the memories of Hardy still tugged at her heart. The look in his eyes as he’d turned and walked away earlier had been so raw, so full of pain, and despite everything that had transpired, it left a mark on her soul.“Brenda?” Will’s voice called softly from behind her.She turned, her heart doing a little skip at the sight of him.
