Her face set in determination! I don't want a magic wand waved! I want to do it!"
His laughter was gentle agreement! "And so you are! But Brenna, life never gets easy! You win one battle, and here comes another! Rather much, I should think, as the waves' pummeling your raft! Without letup! I do want us to weather the storms of life together!"
