EXCERPT

People had hurt this woman, Neil realized, and she still bore the scars, no matter how well she covered them up with cookies and smiles. “Did something like that happen to you?”

He sensed her reluctance to answer his question. “Almost. If it hadn’t been for Ruby—” Maggie paused and swallowed. “It almost happened to me. And I knew other kids in the foster-care system who weren’t as blessed as I was. Their stories didn’t end well. How could they? If you shut your heart off, if you can’t love people because you’re terrified of getting hurt again, what kind of life is that?”

He could have told her. He knew exactly what kind of life that was. But she didn’t seem to expect an answer so he didn’t offer one.

“I won’t let that happen to Oliver,” she said fiercely, “but I’m going to need your help. And who knows? Maybe it’ll help you, too….”

That was his cue. Time to refuse politely, to back away from this, and retreat into the closed-off lifestyle that kept him reasonable functional. 

He suddenly recalled that moment when Oliver had run to him instead of to her—and how he’d wished he could help her.

Well, now he could. She needed him. Nobody had needed him for a very long time.

“All right,” he heard himself saying. “I’ll try. Just tell me what I’m supposed to do.”
