The Midwife And The Lawman. Marisa CarrollЧитать онлайн книгу.

      “You’re the only Indian chief I know. He was a doctor. Third-year cardiology resident.”

      “Your idea or his to call it quits?”

      She sighed. “Mine. He was a great guy, but not the man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.” Who was the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with? A small-town cop with a few rough edges?

      He had to ask one more question. “Did you love him?”

      “No,” she said quietly. “And no more questions from you.”

      “Okay, it’s your turn. Ask away.” He found himself holding his breath. Would she ask why he’d broken her heart so long ago? Would she give him the chance to explain?

      She didn’t bring up the past. “No need to. Your life’s an open book in this town.”

      He gave an exaggerated groan, hiding his disappointment. “Hell, I should have known that.”

      “Your mother wants more grandkids, so she’s hoping you’ll find the right girl to marry soon. I heard that from Trish Linden. And rumor over the tea mugs has it Theresa Quiroga left town after you broke her heart.”
