“Maybe. Are you planning on some matchmaking? Because if you are, you know, it’s a risky business. You should keep your little nose out of it.”
“I’m going to try,” Donna muttered, her eyes sparkling. “But, if I get a chance…”
Luke laughed. “Heaven protect us all! Donna, if there’s something special between them, it’s something they’ll have to figure out for themselves.”
“Do you think they will?” Donna asked worriedly.
Luke laughed. “I’m not a fortune teller, you know.”
“Yes, I know,” Donna said with a little grimace. Then she suddenly realized that she and Luke were finally free to get back to the business of day-to-day life. Their lives.
“I was just thinking, Luke, that this is Sunday. You should be at church!”
He smiled. “I have a very understanding employer.”
“Oh?”
“Yes, I do.” His grin broadened as he dipped to slip an arm beneath her knees and lift her high against him. “He understands completely that I love my wife, and I’m sure He heartily approves.”
“Does He?”
“Definitely. Love is one of His favorite subjects.”
She smiled, feeling totally luxurious as he carried her down the hall. “Luke?”
“Yes?”
“Did I ever tell you that you make me feel absolutely divine?”
“Heavenly?”
“Absolutely heavenly.”
A Biography of Heather Graham
Heather Graham (b. 1953) is one of the country’s most prominent authors of romance, suspense, and historical fiction. She has been writing bestselling books for nearly three decades, publishing more than 150 novels and selling more than seventy-five million copies worldwide.
Born in Florida to an Irish mother and a Scottish father, Graham attended college at the University of South Florida, where she majored in theater arts. She spent a few years making a living onstage as a back-up vocalist and dinner theater actor, but after the birth of her third child decided to seek work that would allow her to spend more time with her family.
After early efforts writing romance and horror stories, Graham sold her first novel, When Next We Love (1982). She went on to write nearly two dozen contemporary romance novels.
In 1989 Graham published Sweet Savage Eden, which initiated the Cameron family saga, an epic six-book series that sets romantic drama amid turbulent periods of American history, such as the Civil War. She revisited the nineteenth century in Runaway (1994), a story of passion, deception, and murder in Florida, which spawned five sequels of its own.
In the past decade, Graham has written romantic suspense novels such as Tall, Dark, and Deadly (1999), Long, Lean, and Lethal (2000), and Dying to Have Her (2001), as well as supernatural fiction. In 2003’s Haunted she created the Harrison Investigation service, a paranormal detective organization that she spun off into four Krewe of Hunters novels in 2011.
Graham lives in Florida, where she writes, scuba dives, and spends time with her husband and five children.
