They were laughing and out of breath by the time he folded down with her onto the wet sand. As a shallow wave washed in and scalloped around them, she lay over his chest and whispered, “I love you so much. I wanted to call you so much.”
His gaze roamed her face and he smiled. “I’m here now.”
“Do you think we were in love all those years ago?”
A playful frown pinched his brow. “You were only fourteen.”
“Juliet was fourteen.”
“I’m more interested in writing our own love story.”
He cradled her head, and Nina melted when his mouth claimed hers again.
As a rising swell of trust and passion consumed and lifted her up, in her heart Nina knew just three things:
The very best of her life had just begun…
She wished this kiss could last for ever…
And, as much as she loved this man—and she loved him to the infinite depths of her soul—Gabriel Turner Steele loved her more.
