Stealing the Bride
Page 5
Overwhelmed, she collapsed on Jacob’s chest as he shook beneath her. Vaguely, she felt them pull from her body and heard a groan that could only have come from her. Her men cuddled her in the middle of the bed as she floated in an abyss of lassitude. How long she lingered there, she didn’t know, but suddenly, her awareness crashed back, and she smiled, fully cognizant that she lay between the two most important people who would ever be in her life. If she had any say, they would always be on either side of her completing the empty parts of her soul.
“Ask me again,” she murmured.
“Marry us,” the men said together.
“Yes!” Her love thundered through her like an unstoppable deluge. The desolation of that morning disappeared, and her future loomed as bright and as full to the brim as she felt right now. “Yes! Yes to it all!”
How could she say anything else? These were her men. Her wonderful lovers and compassionate soul mates. She was theirs. They’d stolen far more than the bride. They’d stolen her heart, and it was theirs forever.
About the Author
When it comes to books and movies, Brynn has one rule: there must be a happy ending. After that one requirement, anything goes. And it just might in her books.
She lives in Michigan with her husband and two children, who love her despite her occasional threats to smite them. They humor her and let her think she's a goddess...as long as she provides homemade chocolate chip cookies on a regular basis. Brynn has conducted workshops at several writers’ conferences around the country and enjoys mentoring and meeting new people.
According to Brynn, her writing success can be attributed to an eclectic collection of music, her local road construction crews, a trusty notebook, and of course, her husband, Mr. Inspiration, who puts up with a lot in the name of research.
