He sees it as living without purpose. Willow knows it's the most purposeful thing she's ever done.She quickly sizes up Mister Tall-dark-and-handsome Monroe and decides he's everything she distrusts in a man; smooth, arrogant, rich--and controlling.Too bad they're stuck with each other until Dan comes back. Too bad flint on stone makes sparks. Too bad those sparks start a fire neither one of them knows how to put out.
