Tom starts out with a crush on a beautiful girl but ends up in love with ugly, mean Hester. Tom is gentle, sweet, and a bit bumbling, and Hester is cold, calculating, ferocious and hideous, to boot. They are beautifully written, full bodied characters and they make a wonderful (sometimes frustrating) couple.(less)

The Rescue

When I locked eyes with her, I gave up everything. I derailed my life, then and there, driving down the highway. Sure, there were ample opportunities to change course. I could have not done it.
