"Favorite Scene From Heaven, Texas!"
 
   My favorite book is Heaven, Texas, and I want to ask everyone out there: What is your favorite scene from this wonderful book?

SPOILERS!*

Mine:
"He'd reached the end of his patience, and with a sigh of pure regret, he placed a hand on each woman's shoulders.
"I'm sorry to do this to you, ladies, but thruth is, Gracie passes the quiz just last night and consented to be Mrs. Bobby Tom."

This is when Bobby Tom get his idea to pretend in front of the whole town that he's engaged to Gracie. But what I love about this scene is the nerve of Bobby Tom. He goes and hugs Gracie and smears her face with baby oil and dirt! Cracks me up! If you've read the book recently, you'll know what I'm talking about.
So when the women leave, Gracie dumps the Ice Cream in Bobby Tom's pants! So funny!

Ana

   My favorite scene is (and I just read it last night and I can't stop thinking about it):

Chapter 17 Suzy approached the railing where Way was standing....

... Oh, this, This! She had missed this unbearably.

...She told herself she would take no comfort from him. her betrayal ran so deep she had no right to comfort. But he stroked her hair and held her tight. Eventually her tears stopped, and she slept in his arms.

_____________________________________________________

This was the most amazing and sexy love scene I have read in years between Suzy and Way

   I love that seen too. Just imaging how Gracie looks covered with baby oil, dirt and than ice cream to top it off. Having her covered in ice cream makes it the more dirtier.

   At the end when he is holding Gracie on the side of the road and he says 'you can't, don't...leave' 'Don't go Gracie, please, we have to talk' 'You said you wouldn't take anything from me' 'I love you, don't leave' This is where Bobby Tom finally admitted how much he loved Gracie...all of his defenses are gone, all of his easy charm is stripped away. Very powerful to me.
