She realized uneasily that she hadn't really known as much as she should have about T.J., but she knew everything about Sean. She knew his strengths and weaknesses. He had never lied to her. When she first saw Sean a month ago, she thought he'd reappeared to screw up her life. She'd literally wanted to rearrange his face. Now, she ran into his arms for comfort and support. Her best friend. A man she knew she could trust.

His honesty had always been a hallmark of their relationship, leaving her with no doubts about his character.

However, her feelings transformed significantly, as she found solace in his embrace, realizing he was not just a friend but a trustworthy companion who provided her with comfort and support.
