The anger in his voice jolts me and I realize that I haven’t said anything. I’m just standing here like an idiot. “I love you too,” I whisper.
“What?”
“I’m in love with you too. Completely.” I take a step closer to him. “Ridiculously.” I press my palms against his chest and push up onto my tiptoes. “Obsessively in love with you,” I whisper against his lips a moment before he kisses me.
His hand palms the back of my head as his lips move against mine, showing me how much he loves me, how real this really is. It’s the perfect combination of love and lust and happiness, and I wish we could just run away, disappear to a place where my family didn’t exist, where inheritances weren’t an issue, where we could just be us and be happy.
But life isn’t all sunshine and roses and we still have two hundred guests in the ballroom fifteen floors below us.
“Say yes. Marry me, Tallulah Marie Archibald,” he growls against my lips.
“Yes.”
His lips find mine again and he lifts me off the ground spinning us around as we kiss, promising each other forever. A lifetime together, just us, and so very, very real.
“No matter what happens downstairs, no matter whatever your parents throw at us, it won’t break us. Because I see you, little ghost. I have since the very first time I watched you sneak out of the darkroom and I’ll always see you,” he rasps, emotion making his voice break a little.
“Promise?” I ask.
“Promise,” he says, kissing the huge diamond on my finger.
With our hands entwined, completely, ridiculously, obsessively in love, I let him lead me into the elevator and toward our engagement party. I’ve no idea what’s going to happen next with my parents, my sister, or the inheritance that’s destroyed our lives; but whatever it is I won’t have to face it alone.

This is book number ten and honestly I don’t think I ever expected to get to this point.
It’s a funny story how this book found its way to life. I’m the member of a group where premade covers are offered for sale. Now all my other books have custom covers and they were specifically created to match the story. However, when I saw the cover for this book the entire story flashed before my eyes and I knew, I just knew, that there was no way I could not buy it.
As always Andie M. Long you are wonder woman and I’d be lost without you.
Abigail Davies of Pink Elephant Designs if you hadn’t created this cover, I would never have written this book, so thank you so much for inspiring me.
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. I can’t write my acknowledgments without giving you a mention. Love you bestie x
Joanna, I made you like teen romance. I’m sooo proud!!
To all my lovely readers, sorry for the cliffy, but the next book’s coming soon, I promise.
