Weird, but okay. Leilani was sure there was a whole bunch of history about this long-awaited engagement that she wasn’t aware of.

“There is no one on the planet more perfect for me than you. I’m not romantic, but what I do know is that you complete me. Marry me, sweetheart. Please marry me and shut my family up.”

“Yes.” Addy threw herself at Hunter, wrapping her arms around his neck, while he simultaneously stood and spun her around.

“The ring!” Harper cried and scrambled to her feet as everyone cheered.

Hunter held the closed box in his hand and shook his head at her. Daniel pulled Harper back down and repositioned his hand over her mouth.

Leilani giggled as Jacob chortled beside her. “God, she’s a menace.”

Hunter released Addy, dropping her back to her feet and then opened the box. As he slid the diamond onto her finger, Leilani’s hand flew to her chest.

He was romantic, even if he said he wasn’t.

Tears built in her eyes as the happy couple kissed.

“Oh, God, that was so beautiful.” Leilani wiped her cheeks as everyone erupted into applause and jumped to their feet.

When she did the same and felt Jacob stand beside her, she smiled tearily at him and found him scowling.

At her.

“So happy for them.” Leilani slid her hands into her pocket and dropped her eyes to the fire.

God she hoped he wanted to go home tomorrow.

She wasn’t sure she could handle more of this because it was becoming more and more obvious that she had let her guard down and was falling for the beautiful man beside her.










CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE

Jacob wanted to take Leilani to the festival after seeing the joy and excitement on her face. He also wanted to take her back through the Hampton mansion and ask her if they should buy it.

They.

He wanted to scoop her up and spin her around and tell her it was hers.
