Excerpt from The Untold Half
While the ush of gratification was tingling her cheeks, the porch door opened, and a man stepped on the veranda beside her - a tall, gaunt man with a February face, cold, set, stem, with deep eyes of singularly penetrating glance, and the far-seeing look of the sailor. Tall as the girl was, her head only reached his shoulder, and her fine physical proportions lost undue significance beside the sinewy length and strength of limb of the man. Although young, his face was set in the determined lines of a middle-aged man, the lines from nose to chin were deep-cut, and the dark brows met in a stern furrow but the curve of jaw was softened by a singularly sweet mouth - a mouth not weak in any line. The lips folded resolutely and in determination, but a strange sweetness lingered about them, and a stranger almost expected them to open in a rush of soft words belying the sternness of the face.
