His Thirty-Day Fiancée
Page 16
There hadn’t been many seconds spent standing still over the past couple weeks. After returning from Chicago, they’d gone by the island to visit his father. Seated around the dinner table, Enrique had announced he intended to go to a mainland hospital for further assessment. A hospital in Florida.
If she’d put her mind to it, she probably could have guessed the Medina island was off the coast of St. Augustine, Florida, given the weather. And while the island sported a mix of English, Spanish and even a little French…her journalistic instincts said the place carried an American influence. But admitting that to herself then would have been more knowledge than she was comfortable having.
Knowledge that had far-reaching safety implications for the Medinas.
And now that she was a de facto Medina by engagement, she had a whole new perspective on the PR angle. No doubt, handling publicity for the Medina family would be a full-time job. She had retooled the Global Intruder into Global Communications.
Arching up, she kissed her fiancé, who also happened to be the proud new owner of a sprawling Boston mansion on the water, a forever home with room for Jennifer and any future little princes and princesses. “I love you, Duarte Medina.”
“And I love you.” He swept her up, sporting real strength to go with those ninja workout clothes. Strength and honor to count on for life.
