So why had he walked away from Zoe?
Was he a coward? Afraid of risking his heart?
Was he a tough guy on the outside, but a hollow shell on the inside?
He had to be, because he hadn’t been able to risk everything for love.
Zoe had stood in front of him and told him she loved him. She’d been willing to bare herself. To lay it all out there and risk rejection. And he’d shut her down. Walked out on her.
Was that what he wanted to do? Walk away and never see Zoe again? Never hold her again? Never kiss her, make love with her again?
Was that how he wanted his life to be? Empty? Barren? Joyless?
Staring at the waves rolling into the shore, Spence stood up. The water called to him, and he knew what it was saying.
He knew what he needed to do.
