LOGINShe was teary by the end, which made me feel like I'd absolutely nailed it. "I now pronounce you husband and wife," the officiant said. "You may kiss your bride." I pulled Paige into my arms and kissed her while everyone cheered. At the reception, Danny gave his best man speech with way too mu
ASHER I'd performed in front of millions of people, won three acting awards, and done my own stunts in a movie where I nearly died twice. But standing in this room waiting to get married, I was more terrified than I'd ever been in my entire life. Ten dates. That's what I'd told Paige we neede
When my parents came back from their conference, Damon told me he wanted our families to know about our relationship officially. I was nervous, but I agreed. The next evening, everyone gathered in the main living room. My parents, Aunt Sky and her husband, Victor, Ella, Asher and his new girlf
My heart started racing. "Really? You can do that?" "If you have the recording, yes. If not, I can go to Frank and get it from him." "I have it," I said quickly. "I made Frank send it to me. I thought if my dad ever found out and tried to go after Frank's mother, I could use the recording to thr

DANNY Carrying Kelly in my arms should have felt wrong. I'd just made it clear that I was respecting her boundaries, that I wasn't going to read meaning into anything, that what happened between us didn't matter. And yet here I was, holding her like she was the most precious thing in the world.

Danny let out a soft laugh despite the tension. "I'll be gentle. I promise." He moved carefully, incrementally, giving my body time to adjust to him. Each movement brought a fresh wave of discomfort, but it was bearable now. Almost. "Is it supposed to feel like this?" I asked, my voice strained.
