Maggie had the foolish notion that as long as he held her, she'd be safe. She had never had safe. She had control. Or she would have as soon as she pulled herself together, repaired the damage. "I'm fine...now," she whispered to the top button of Beau's shirt. Beau barely heard her whisper, but the quiet words etched themselves on his heart all the same.
