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   117 - I Never Knew Love Like This

    The reception is over, the decorations and the wedding are now a memory. The third tier of the wedding cake is in the freezer—Mr. Kincaid tells them."You two get out of her and go enjoy yourself! Get out of here now, before you miss your plane! Have a wonderful time on your honeymoon!” Hours later, they looked at each other, sipping from their glasses.Clearly, you can see that they're relieved and happy that everything went so well, even with the unexpected guest. It was a wonderful wedding.Melvin lifted his eyes across the table at Beth as he stood, glancing down at his lady, asking.“My beautiful wife, would you like to take a walk on the beach with me?” Before she could answer, he knelt, speaking in a soft tone.“Wait, let me help you take off your shoes. You won't need these.”Peering at her with those dreamy eyes while seductively gliding his hand up her calf, lifting her leg, as he glances at her intently.“I want you to be comfortable.”Melvin winked at her as he knelt bef

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   115 - Beth's Big Day

    The wedding was scheduled to start at 5 pm sharp. Beth wanted just enough daylight to enjoy the scenery, with nightfall at 5:45 pm, in time for a romantic reception.So the guest had all afternoon to go sightseeing, hang out, shop, or do whatever tickled their fancy. Beth really wanted everyone to enjoy themselves and feel like they were on a tropical island.As the day went by, both Beth and Melvin were kept very busy. But it didn't stop the two of them from wondering what the other was doing. They both attempted to call each other. But immediately put their phones away, as they thought. 'I'm going to keep her and him in suspense.'It really was amazing how they thought the same about so many things.Beth and Melvin even felt the same way about this special day. They really wanted it to be no worries and carefree. Like the days they spent together here in the Bahamas when they first met. During that time last year, Melvin spent many carefree evenings with Bet, walking along the beach

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   114 - Under Open Skies

    The morning light filtered through the kitchen window, painting golden rectangles on the worn pine floor. Beth shuffled across them in her slippers, coffee mug in hand, nerves fluttering beneath her skin like a flock of restless birds. She had barely slept, her head spinning with bouquets and color swatches and the vague, insistent pressure to make everyone happy. Today was the big planning day—the day the Kincaid women, plus Vanessa, would gather to sketch out the future of her wedding. Beth’s wedding. The thought still felt surreal.The Kincaid women, as Sharon liked to call them, arrived right on time, each bearing the unmistakable energy of a woman on a mission. Sharon, Beth’s mother, swept in first, her lips painted a determined shade of coral, arms loaded with bridal magazines from the early 2000s, and a notepad bristling with sticky notes. India followed, her steps light and hair pulled back in an effortless ponytail, carrying a folder labeled “Destination: Paradise.” Vanessa a

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   113- I Can Do Bad All By Myself

    Beth’s apartment was shrouded in the soft, gray hush of a rainy Saturday. She sat curled on the couch, knees pressed to her chest, a mug of tea gone cold in her hands. Her eyes were raw, cheeks blotchy from the tears that had slipped out in hiccupping waves since sunrise. The weight of the morning pressed down on her shoulders: the realization that Melvin wouldn’t be a part of her baby’s life had finally landed with a thud she couldn’t ignore.“I want a man in my life, but I don’t need a man. It’s not meant for me to find a Good man. So I’ll go it alone.”Beth’s heartbreak had not come suddenly. It had built in layers, like the clouds that had rolled in that morning—first thin wisps of doubt, then a gathering storm of silence—days had stretched into weeks since she’d told Melvin about the baby. At first, she’d convinced herself he just needed time. But as the messages went unanswered and the calls rang into a void, Beth was forced to face the ache of his absence. She replayed the nig

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   112 - The Runaway Man

    The day moved on, sunlight filling the room, but Beth felt hollow. She didn’t know if Mel was gone for good, if he would come back, if she would ever see him again. But she knew, with a fierce certainty, that no matter what happened, she would find a way forward. For herself. For her baby. For the hope that one day, she would not wake up alone.Beth replayed their conversation in her head the entire day while staring at her phone screen, willing it to light up, to buzz, to give her some sign that Mel was thinking of her. Of them. Of the tiny life growing inside her. But like before, days passed, then weeks, and it stayed stubbornly silent except for the occasional work email or automated reminder. Each time she saw Mel’s name in her call log, her chest squeezed so tightly she thought she might suffocate.Like a recording on repeat, their words replayed the night she told him over and over, like a film she could not stop watching. The relief she’d felt when he pulled her close, the pro

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   43. The Hidden Agenda

    The city buzzed with late-night traffic as Marcus sat in his modern office, the skyline shining in the window behind him. His jaw still ached from the bar fight, but the pain made him more determined. He checked emails with one hand and swirled his whiskey with the other, his thoughts tangled with

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   42. Hearts On Trial

    Sunday dinners at the Kincaid house finally felt like family, and it had become India’s favorite tradition. But tonight, the air felt different—thick with something unspoken. Denver squeezed her hand as they stepped inside, the scent of rosemary chicken and fresh bread wafting from the kitchen. Lau

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   41. Boardroom War

    The conference room felt colder than usual, even with the morning sun slicing through the glass walls. Denver sat at the head of the polished oak table, his hands folded, jaw tight. Around him, the board members murmured in small clusters, their eyes darting between their coffee and each other. The

  • Love, Lies, and I Do   40. Crossing The Line

    Denver almost didn’t recognize the shape of his own reflection in the bar mirror. The haze of neon, the clatter of pool balls, the sticky floor—he hadn’t been here in months. Not since things with Marcus had gone sideways. He nursed his beer, waiting for his dad, Alan, to show up. He needed this—a
