I stretched lazily across the bed like a satisfied cat before finally opening my eyes. The first thing I saw was a face hovering far too close to mine. Sharp features. A clean jawline. Sun-kissed golden eyes that looked almost unreal. The kind of face people whispered about, the kind sculptors prayed to capture. My sleepy brain offered a ridiculous explanation. Ah... Clara finally brought home a decent, well-groomed man. Then reality hit. Why was he in my room? Wait? Was this even my room.... Shit. My mind froze. **** Growing up as the eldest child on a small farm outside Chicago was no picnic for Mary Johnson.
