\nThat could be why Margo feels like she’s in the center ring and about to be swallowed by a lion.
\nBut the best things about George, the strong powerful CEO, are the ones he’s not known for, like his small thoughtful gifts, the crystal angel Christmas tree ornament he’d given her, the way he holds her hand at odd moments, the way he bear-hugs his grandma whenever he sees her and the way he speaks with misty eyes about his late mother.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
