Kept Eyes Quote by Amber Lynn Perry
““A whispering breeze sliced through Thomas as his gaze followed their waning figures. His heart shrunk with every advancing step Eliza took. Thomas kept his eyes on her, knowing she would look back. Though she may not feel the same horrid loneliness that dominated him, they had shared so much. Surely she would acknowledge him before leaving his life forever. The three of them rounded the far corner that led into town. Thomas’s eyes burned and his throat seized. She never looked back.””
