Rose’s smile faltered. “I know we talked about waiting to start a family until my company was up and running, but it just happened.” She bit her lip. “Is it all right? I mean—do you mind?”
He stared at her, then he exploded.
“Do I mind?” he yelled.
His handsome face was bright with thrilled wonder and delight. Lifting her in his arms with a whoop of joy, he swung her in her wedding dress, spinning her around and around in front of the chapel, until her white satin slippers soared into the blue sky. His joy caused the birds to fly into the air, bursting toward the sun.
And as she tumbled back into her husband’s passionate embrace, Rose knew just how they felt.
Real love in real life—that was the fairy tale. That was the promise that could never be broken.
