“Devlin, wait! There’s something I have to show you!”
She reached for her purse. “I have a photo of Livie,” Karen explained quickly.
He glanced down at the photograph while she watched his face, waiting for some sign of awareness. There was none. Not yet.
“Her hair wasn’t curled for the picture,” she said. “It’s naturally wavy, and even darker than it looks here. And her eyes—you can’t tell in this—but her eyes are a dark blue.”

When she thought she couldn’t endure another second of his silent scrutiny, he glanced at the picture again. “It isn’t possible. We took precautions.”
“Yes, and sometimes even the most careful precautions fail.”
“And just when,” he growled, “were you planning to tell me about her? Or, if I hadn’t turned you down just now, would you ever have told me at all?”
