Man From Tennessee
Page 17
Kern was suddenly a giant in the doorway again, silent this time, his eyes strictly on his wife. The four other women glanced up at him and then at each other.
“It’s not as though we can’t finish this another time,” Rhea said as she moved toward the door.
“Yes,” Trisha said helplessly.
In five minutes they were alone in the room. “You didn’t really expect to just drop fireworks like that-” Kern started vibrantly.
“No.” She shook her head, laughing as she crossed the room to him. “I meant to tell you after a terrific dinner with chilled champagne. But I couldn’t wait, Kern.” She wound her arms around his neck, looking up at him with love-filled eyes. “I love you so!”
“And I love you,” he murmured deeply, and dipped his head to kiss her. “How soon?” he whispered.
“March,” she whispered back.
“You need rest,” he scolded, as his lips gently claimed hers over and over.
“Rest?” she reminded him teasingly as she felt his fingers unsnapping the back of her dress. His hand faltered.
“Tish, if you actually need-”
She shook her head. “What I need, Kern, is you.” Fleetingly she thought how good and easy it was to say those words. And as Kern removed the last of their clothing, a look of happiness and love on his face, Trisha welcomed him with open arms, certain they shared the joy of knowing they were building a rich, new life-together.

The university honored her with their “Lantern Night Award,” a tradition developed to honor fifty outstanding women graduates each year. Exploring issues and concerns for women today is what first motivated her to write, and she has long been an enthusiastic and active supporter of women’s fiction, which she believes is an “unbeatable way to reach out and support other women.” Jennifer lives in the country around Benton Harbor, Michigan, with her husband, Lar.
