Maybe their disconnects so far hadn't been ALL about her running away; maybe he needed to stop coming on so strong. If fussing over him and taking a minute helped her feel more comfortable with their relationship - nothing in the world could convince him this was only lust, not after the wealth of relief he'd seen in her eyes today - then why deny her? He could keep from pouncing on her long enough to let HER come

He didn't want her showing up in his life voluntarily only when she was concerned about him.

ARGH, undescribed sex. The bane of my existence.
Now she's freaking out.

Meg had mocked Brooke's decision to wait until the wedding night to make love to Giff, and Brooke realized now her sister had a strong point. It was fine to decide to wait - that was a personal decision - but shouldn't she have at least been more tempted? Shouldn't she have found herself fantasizing about the honeymoon to come?

Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God. Brooke stood against the closed door, wringing her hands like a bad actress in a melodrama. She wasn't this person. She was paralyzed by the nauseating indecision over what to do next - confess all to Giff immediately or spend the next seventy years hoping he never found out. I can't face him.

...yet she found herself leaning, swaying almost imperceptibly toward him.
Since he'd been watching her with the hungry intensity of a predator about to pounce, he caught her movement. It was all the permission he needed before folding his arms around her and lowering his mouth to hers. The shock of their lips meeting sizzled through her, but she didn't have time to process it. It wasn't a quick peck, it was an
