Regan's Pride (1994)
“Ted echoed. He glowered at his sister. “Where has she gone?”
“She moved up to Victoria two weeks ago. I’ve let her rent the apartment there. She has a job, too. She’s receptionist to a real estate agency, and she’s blooming.”
It took him a minute to adjust to the news. He hadn’t expected her to leave. He’d stayed away, hoping to get his passion for her under control before it broke the bonds completely. The way they’d loved had been so sweet that he hadn’t slept a night since. He wanted her to ...the point of madness, but he couldn’t afford to give in. It was what was best for her, he’d told himself when he left. But two weeks of self-denial had only made him bad-tempered. All he could think about was the years of anguish she’d spent with Barry because of him. He’d wanted to spare her the ordeal of being tied to an older man and being discontent. But he’d caused her such pain, all from noble motives. And what he’d done to himself didn’t bear thinking about.MoreLess
