He ruins her by taking her virginity and decides he doesn't want to marry her. He is still suffering from the loss of his wife and child. Helen agrees to come home with Gareth and they have sex. She falls hard for Gareth and he wants nothing more than the sex no love no marriage. In the end he comes to terms with his true feeling for her. He realizes that she means more to him then he wanted to admit at first. This is a good story and worth the read.
