Her head swam, her limbs warmed. She longed to both swoon and jump for joy. She’d been in love with a figment of her imagination but this man, his touch, his flaws…it was all real, and the love bursting from her chest was enough to give her the confidence that no matter what they faced, this rake and this wallflower would have no troubles conquering it together.
“I haven’t kissed you enough,” he bemoaned. “You’re my fiancée, and I have most certainly not kissed you enough.”

With a smile, he did as she bid and kissed her most thoroughly, leaving her in no doubt there would more than enough passionate kisses in their future.
