“Then it’s my turn to make a promise. And I promise you, Nic Durand, that I will love you for as long as I live. I will live with you in that great big house of yours by the ocean. I will laugh with you. I will raise children with you. And I will love you until I die.”

Tears bloomed in his eyes, too, but when he reached for her, she held up a hand to stop him. “I’m not done yet.”

She’d already told him everything he wanted to hear, so much more than he had imagined her conceding when he’d climbed in that helicopter to chase after her. But he just nodded, and waited for whatever else she had to say.

“Not only all of that, but I also promise to never, ever, ever write another article about you or your brother or your company as long as we both shall live.”

He laughed then, because how could he not? He was getting everything he’d ever wanted, and all he had to do was fall in love with the most wond

erful woman in the world. He kind of felt as if he’d cheated the system, and won. It was a beautiful feeling, one he would cherish for the rest of his life.

And as he swept her into his arms and carried her the twenty-two steps necessary to take her through the living room and into the bedroom, he did ask her for one more thing. A new couch.

He counted it as a sign that she loved him that she laughed only a little…and gave in with only a very little struggle.
