EASTER SUNDAY IN the St. James mansion had been positively beautiful. Weâd just finished eating a traditional rack-of-lamb meal. The conversation was light and casual and I was relaxed, unlike the last holiday Iâd spent here.
Lily attended again, but this time Simone had invited her. I loved having my best friend with me. The three of us went out onto the veranda after eating to talk about Paris. Simone spoke a mile a minute about her list of must-sees. Clearly, she loved Paris. Her face glowed, eyes wide with excitement. Every so often, sheâd brush her long brown hair off her shoulders and bounce in her seat. I was glad she was feeling better. Her bout with the flu bug back in March seemed to be over .
I couldnât keep up with her rapid-fire rattling off sites to see. My head spun with each French word that left her lips. It would be impossible for me to remember any of this.
âThis sounds extensive. Maybe you could email me?â I fluttered my eyelashes. âAnd your French is on point.â
Simone flipped her hair off her shoulder and giggled. âAh, merci beaucoup, belle dame.â
I frowned, unable to understand what sheâd said. Iâd taken Spanish in high school and college. Even so, I couldnât speak it fluentlyâdisgraceful no doubt.
âThank you very much, beautiful lady.â She puckered her full lips and blew me a kiss. The shade of peach lipstick she wore was one few could pull off. She was stunning. âHow about I email you a complete itinerary? But...â
Will stepped out of the house, catching the tail end of Simoneâs strict orders. Follow all the sites as I list them in the email .
âWhatâs going on here? Is Simone playing travel agent?â He laughed, shaking his head.
âThereâs so much to see in two short weeks,â she explained. âIâm just making sure Miranda gets the full Parisian experience.â
âNo worries, weâll see everything you suggest,â I assured her. Maybe. Hell, I didnât have a clue. Will had been talking up Paris for months. Surely he had his own itinerary .
Will put his lips to the shell of my ear and whispered, âUnless we donât leave our suite.â His words felt like a proposition, sending ripples of heat through me. My mouth went dry, thirsty for his.
Of course, he hadnât whispered it low enough. Simone and Lily squealed with laughter, and I laughed right along with them.
I loved how we all got along, just like with my parents. Every sign I needed saying Will was the one was as visible as a billboard drenched in spotlights. Nothing meant more to me than the peace and harmony within a family.
As an only child, Iâd always dreamed of being part of a big, close-knit family. Iâd never had cousins or grandparents. I knew I had family somewhere in the world, since a stork hadnât just delivered my parents to the orphanage one day. Still, I wasnât curious enough to look for them. It would only stir up painful memories.
