“It is,” he said softly. “I know it is.”
“I think you’re right.” I lifted my chin enough to kiss his neck. “And okay, I’ll let you shower me with praise and expensive food in a candlelit setting.”
“In a new dress,” he reminded me.
“In a new dress.”
“Followed by filthy limo antics.”
“Don’t promise what you can’t deliver.”
He growled, his arms tightening around me. “Oh, I can deliver, Mrs. North. Should I give you a preview of the action right now?”
“Absolutely.” I grinned against his kiss. “But you should probably take me inside. I have a tendency to be very loud when I come.”
He heaved to his feet, keeping me cradled in his arm. Clicking his tongue against his teeth, he gave me a heated look. “What did I do to deserve you?”
I traced my finger over his lips. “Don’t be grateful. I don’t know if you know it, Mr. North, but you married a very dirty woman.”
“I know exactly what I married. I love what I married, and I’m going to give you everything that dirty little mind wants.” He shouldered the door open and carried me into the house, his mouth peppering mine with fierce kisses. “The good. The bad. And the filthy.” He deepened his kiss, pulling me tighter to his chest as his mouth crushed against mine.
“Promise?” I whispered, when we moved into the bedroom and he carefully laid me on the bed.
“I swear.” He lowered himself on top of me and I closed my eyes, surrendering to his touch, his kiss, and his promise.
I knew one thing. My husband always delivered on his vows.
Especially the filthy ones.
Afterword
Wow. I haven’t loved a couple this much since Brad and Julia, back in 2012 and 2013. If you haven’t read the Innocence trilogy, I urge you to read it! If you liked this series, you will love their story, which is just as dirty and with even higher stakes! Start with Blindfolded Innocence.
I do think I’ll write another book in their story, but I can’t guarantee it. I hope this gave you enough of a complete ending to close their chapter in your head. I was very torn on whether to give Elle a baby at the end. If I do write a third book, I think I’ll address her fertility there. I am of the strong personal belief that a woman doesn’t have to have children in order to be happy, and know that Easton and Elle have a wonderful future ahead of them with, or without, children.
Now, I’m off to celebrate the completion of a good book. My celebratory process normally ends with me stumbling into bed, sleep-deprived and mildly delirious. Tonight, I am anxious to spend time with my husband. After living in Elle and Easton’s romance for the last three months, I’m anxious to return to my own. Instead of one dog, we have three. Instead of Chelsea, my best friend couldn’t get past the steamy prologue of Filthy Vows before blushing and turning away. And instead of Easton, I have my husband, who blows all my fictional heroes out of the water with just one cocky grin.
