“I think you’re only supposed to hood me,” she muttered, without moving her lips, “notkissme.”
One eyebrow lifted as his shoulders hitched. “They won’t complain about one tiny kiss.”
He dipped down, gently brushing his lips against hers. Though she tried to ignore the effect of his touch, his lips stirred up currents that zapped her from head to toe. But true to his word, he kept it short and sweet, ripping his mouth away just as she was starting to enjoy it.
“Atta-boy, Liam!” Nora’s voice carried across the quiet auditorium, followed by peals of laughter.
With a smile and a wave at the audience, Carly started toward the next table where a professor was waiting with her diploma.
“Wait!” Liam caught her elbow and tugged her back. “I have something for you.”
His hand ducked inside his robes and came out with a small black box. She found herself posed in classic surprise, her hand covering her wide-open mouth. Her eyes went so hazy she couldn’t see the ring.
I can’t believe this is happening! It must be a dream.
With the crowd cheering in the background, Dream Liam spoke, his words for her alone.
“Carly, I don’t know how I lived without you, and I never want to do it again. Walk with me, and I’ll stay beside you even when the path is steep. Let me hold your hand when turbulence rocks the plane. When the blizzards come, I’ll shelter you in my arms. Please say you’ll marry me. And whatever comes, we’ll face it together.”
His hand rose to her face, his thumb brushing the dampness on her cheek.
I know for sure this isn’t a dream. It can’t be. Because I could never imagine anything this perfect!
She threw herself against him, the sanctuary of his embrace closing around her. At long last, wearing blue hair and wrapped in the arms of a man on wheels, Carly’s dream came true. Though it wasn’t exactly the way she’d imagined when she was fourteen, crushing on her brother’s hunky best friend.
Because real life was messy.
But real love... was nothing short of incredible!

And they lived joyfully ever after!

EXCERPT
THE BILLIONAIRE’S SECRET MARRIAGE
Stephanie Caldwell winced at her reflection in the mirror, snatching a tissue to wipe the smeared mascara from under her eyes. She wasn’t about to let anyone know she was bothered by the announcement her boss just made. No one else had been surprised. Why was she? She knew from the start there could never be any kind of relationship between her and Branson Knight.
I’m twenty-nine… too old to have a silly school-girl crush.
A few wispy brown curls escaped her bun, the only adornment of her neck. She hadn’t worn her typical costume jewelry, knowing the other female guests would be sporting genuine diamonds.
The jiggling doorknob, followed by a few sharp knocks, jerked her back into reality. There had to be a dozen bathrooms in Bran’s mansion. Why did someone need to use this one, in the far back corner of his darkened private library? Most people didn’t even know it existed.
