Being left at the altar by your fiancé, who you spent the last five years with, was no easy pill to swallow. There was something about Grace that had him considering the option of throwing those plans out of the window and healing her broken heart one kiss at a time.

CHAPTER SIX
     
    Grace sat in the airport waiting for Paige’s plane to arrive. She was excited to see her sister. It had been a long time since all three Carter sisters lived under the same roof. The next three days were going to be fabulous. Paige moved to New York right after high school and never looked back.
    After Paige graduated from college, she had even less time to visit. She found herself backpacking through Europe, exploring the art culture, and falling in love with Dominic, her Italian tour guide. When they moved back to New York, she called Grace to tell her she had found the love of her life. She and Dominic were going to get married as soon as both of their lives were less hectic. Two years later they were both still too busy to plan a wedding, but she told Grace that it wasn’t a big deal. One day they would make time for it.
    “And here I thought you would be jumping up and down to see me, yet I find you here sleeping,” Paige said, as a startled Grace sat up.
    “You’re here!”
    Seeing Paige made her feel a little better. The past few days she felt like she was a walking zombie. Restless nights of crying and still thinking of what Denny did to her was taking its toll.
     
    Both sisters hugged each other tight. Paige exhaled a long breath as she felt like she was home and all her worries were left behind in New York.
    “Let me look at you! You look so different from the last time I saw you,” Grace said.
    Paige looked almost like Grace except she was taller and had green eyes. She had a lean figure and looked like she did Yoga every day. Grace smiled as she looked at Paige, but her smile soon faded when she noticed the look in Paige’s eyes. They weren’t bright and filled with a love for life like they were before. Something was different and she knew it. She could feel it.
    “You look amazing, Grace! You haven’t changed at all. Are you still killing yourself with those early morning runs?”
    Paige remembered her sister always running. She never missed a day unless she was sick, but it was obvious from her body that she kept up the running and took care of herself. She avoided eye contact with Grace because she knew if her sister really looked at her she would see something was wrong. Paige had no desire to tell Grace what was going on. Not just yet.
    “I’m so happy to be home! I can’t wait to see Autumn. How is our baby sister?”
    “Autumn is her usual self. You know her;optimistic and positive as always. She has really grown up. She is so
    excited to see you, but she probably won’t be home until later tonight. She is working at Geddy’s.”
    Paige missed Geddy’s. She loved the great food, but most of all, the great atmosphere. She told herself she would stop by Geddy’s at least once before she went back to New York. “Let’s get my bags. I am exhausted and I need a bed,” Paige said, as they went to get her bags. “I still have a bed, right?”
    Grace looked at her sister as she grabbed one of her bags and shook her head. “No, I’m sorry. I turned it into my own personal library.”
            Paige stopped dead in the middle of the airport terminal and turned her head toward Grace, who was grinning.
    “Gotcha! Of course you still have a bed and your room. It’s exactly the way you left it Paige. I would never get rid of your room. Just because you live in New York doesn’t mean this isn’t your home. You know that, right? You are always welcome to come back home anytime and stay as long as you like.”
    Those words meant more to Paige than Grace could ever imagine because it was just what she needed to hear. It was what she was thinking about doing, but she was afraid to tell Grace the
