Marcus leaned over and brushed a strand of hair from her cheek. His eyes were bright and mischievous. He kissed her again.

He said, grinning. “Get dressed. We’re going on an adventure.”

Vanessa squinted at him, half-laughing. “What kind of adventure?”

Marcus pulled her gently toward him. “The kind where you marry me. Today. On this island.”

Vanessa’s mouth dropped open. “Are you serious?”

“Completely.” He pressed a quick kiss to her forehead. “While you get dressed, I’ll do some research on th

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   76 - Family Stirring Up Some Mess

    The mall’s air was cool and scented with the faint perfume haze of a hundred cosmetics counters, but the atmosphere between Sharon and Leah as they strolled arm in arm was warm, cozy—almost conspiratorial. Their laughter echoed off the marble floors as they zigzagged between stores, their shopping bags swinging with each step.“Sharon, you have to let me do this,” Leah insisted, holding up a gleaming designer purse. The buttery leather caught the light, a soft blush pink, sophisticated and unmistakably expensive. “You’ve done so much for me. I want you to have it.”Sharon put a hand to her chest, eyes wide in mock protest, but it took only a moment before she relented, her lips curving in a pleased, grateful smile. “You spoil me, Leah. You know you don’t have to do all this, but I can’t say no. It’s beautiful.”They laughed again, tucking the bag into one of Sharon’s arms, and continued their leisurely pace. The closeness between them was obvious—Sharon’s hand resting lightly on Leah’

  • Love, Lies, and I Do    75- A Blissful Morning

    How much alcohol had it taken to get Denver to the point where he couldn't entirely lift his head off the pillow? It was a good starter question. Something like this has never happened to him before. A perfectly shaped warm body was sleeping next to him? The feel of soft flesh made him smile in his sleep. This whole scene was a great reminder of just how much fun he had last night. Vanessa rounded buns pressing up against his thigh. She's making his (rod) rise, asking for more! Then, as his thoughts battle with Charlie, it is taking place. Out of the corner of his eye, he sees an incredible image as the young lady slides out of bed. So Marcus spoke up, clearing his throat. "Good...good morning, Miss Monroe," Vanessa tilted her head up, her voice playful and sultry. “Good morning back to you, So… did you enjoy your surprise?” Marcus grinned, his eyes warm. “It was perfect. You’re perfect.”She fully turned her nude body around, facing him. Marcus' eyes expanded. For sure, she was

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   74 - A Night to Remember

    It had taken a month of whispered planning, secret Pinterest boards, and late-night calls. India and Vanessa wanted this night to be unforgettable—a declaration that love, no matter how tested, could still be celebrated.The city glittered as dusk fell, lights twinkling beneath the glassy skyline. At the heart of it all, inside the crown jewel of downtown hotels, a private penthouse was transformed into a romantic haven. Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the city’s heartbeat. Candlelight shimmered on every surface, casting gold over white linen and crystal. A string quartet played soft, dreamy songs, and roses adorned every table. The room was set for only four, a world apart from the rest.The ladies had gone all out. Two pearl colored, gleaming Rolls-Royces waited at their respective homes, chauffeurs in crisp uniforms at the ready. India wore a deep sapphire gown that hugged her waist and fluttered at her ankles, her hair was swept into soft waves, and her lips were painted in a bold

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   73 -The Confession

    The kitchen was quiet except for the faint hum of the refrigerator and the scratch of India’s pen as she bent over her notebook. She’d spread out her planning across the table—menus, playlist ideas, scribbled hearts, and notes about candlelight and Marcus’s favorite wine. Her face was soft in the low light, eyes narrowed with purpose. She was halfway lost in imagining how she could make Denver fall in love all over again when the sound of a key turning in the lock jolted her.In a practiced motion, India swept the notebook off the table and tucked it under her thigh, smoothing her skirt over it just as Denver walked in. He paused in the doorway, his gaze scanning the scene. India felt her heart jump. Did she look guilty? Was her smile too forced?“Hey,” he said, his voice tired, his smile brief.“Hey,” she replied, casually brushing a hand over her lap. She could sense him noticing the tension in her shoulders, but he seemed too preoccupied to care. Denver’s face was pale and drawn, h

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   72- Distance Breeds Temptation

    The house felt different the day Marcus came home from the hospital. Vanessa had fluffed every pillow, set out his favorite slippers by the door, and made a pot of chicken soup that simmered all afternoon. She had imagined him walking through the door, collapsing into her arms, whispering how much he’d missed her. Instead, Marcus paused in the entryway, nodded at her, and headed straight for the bedroom. He closed the door behind him. It might as well have been made of stone.Vanessa stood in the hallway, a ladle in one hand, blinking hard. She wanted to believe he just needed time. After all, she’d seen the worry lines etched deeper on his face, the way his eyes darted away from hers, as if she were a puzzle he couldn’t quite piece together. But as the days passed, Marcus kept his distance. He ate dinner with her, but only after she called him twice. He answered her questions, but with half-smiles and shrugs. He slept on his side of the bed, back turned, lost in dreams he wouldn’t sh

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   71- The Sunday Dinner Catastrophe

    India had started to believe Sunday dinners might finally be safe. No more side glances. No more whispered asides. Sharon had even started calling her 'dear' without that tight smile. Sometimes, India caught Alan watching her with an approving nod. She and Beth had something similar to a sisterhood. It had taken two years, but she was certain the Kincaids were starting to trust her. Maybe, she thought, she was becoming a real part of the family.That Sunday, India decided to bring her best lasagna, the one Denver swore was better than any restaurant’s. She called Sharon early, eager to show her thoughtfulness. “I’ll bring the main course tonight,” she said, smiling into the phone. “Lasagna, from scratch. Let me take care of dinner. You can relax for once.”“Oh, India, that’s so sweet,” Sharon replied, her voice syrupy. “Don’t worry about dessert. I have a little surprise for my Denver.”India didn’t think twice about it. She pictured apple crisp, Denver’s favorite, or maybe a pecan pi

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   16. I'm Sprung Over You

    Denver had risen early, thinking about the way she kissed him. His thoughts seemed clearer than ever before. “I’m a married man. This isn’t a joke. Maybe it's temporary, but at this moment, I’m someone’s husband in real life. And that someone is India.” As their honeymoon days came and went, Denve

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   14. Opening Her Heart, to His

    India had to admit, it wasn't that Denver made it terribly uncomfortable for her. She realized that the kiss, with that glass of wine, made it feel like more than just being friends was happening between them. But she kept in mind that drinking always made her relax, but she wondered if she was l

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   8. Trouble Looms

    The knock at the door was thunderous, shaking the picture frames on Denver’s walls. You would have thought it was the police. India stiffened, eyes wide and red from hours of silent tears. Denver pressed his palm to her shoulder, steadying her—steadying himself. He’d been preparing for this moment

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   7. The Calm Before The Storm

    "I've got to be honest, I feel nervous," India said, looking at him sincerely. "Okay, red or white?""Red is as good as any," India said.Denver walked away feeling relieved that he wasn't the only one nervous about all of this. He picked up two glasses. She needed a drink too. Denver took a seat
