Chapter Six

Andrea made a beautiful bride and Jeff a handsome groom, if a bit of a mess waiting for her at the altar. The ceremony was lovely, even if Alys had to suffer through her father beaming like he was responsible for it all. And her mother preening in an outfit better suited for someone half her age. At least they carried out their parental responsibilities without taking away from the occasion too much.

People kept sneaking a glance at her left hand where the most exquisite ring, a pink opal, surrounded by bezel-set diamonds, resided. Simon had wonderful taste and an even better memory.

As Simon predicted, her brother and Andrea were smug, as were Ryan and Paul. Maybe a few others weren’t surprised, but a gratifying number was and she enjoyed their excitement and well wishes too. If there were a few—mostly blondes—who weren’t thrilled, she didn’t much care.

The initial dancing was over and she was waltzing in the love of her life’s arms, held close, breathing in his familiar scent. Being that it was a destination wedding, they had their own room, a suite, overlooking the ocean. Alys already loved the island life and looked forward to the next few weeks, her first vacation in a long time.

Jeff and Simon insisted the firm could do without them both and while she had no intention of horning in on the honeymoon, they’d all decided to get together when the urge struck. She suspected she wouldn’t see much of her brother and new sister-in-law for the next few days, in any event.

“Are you tired? It’s been a big day.”

She suppressed a smile. “A little.”

“I’m tired.”

“They’ll be cutting the cake soon. We have to stay for that.”

“Traditions,” he grumbled, though he’d been a superb best man, shoring Jeff up through a bout of nerves, keeping the rings safe and ironing out the little glitches. She hardly had anything to do aside from help Andrea get dressed, all those tiny little buttons the only fussy adornment on the beachy gown.

She could feel the heat emanating from him as he stood close, watching with her while the happy couple sliced the cake and handed it around after feeding one another a small piece.

“Thanks for being here,” Andrea whispered in her ear, giving her a one-armed hug. “See you tomorrow. Or maybe the next day.”

Jeff smiled hugely, his stare never leaving his bride. “See you tomorrow.”

They gave the couple a few minutes to gain their suite, down a few rooms from them, before taking the elevator up. Simon whisked her down the hall and into their room, securing the door. “Finally.”

She pressed against him, his short-sleeved shirt parting before her nimble fingers. He’d long discarded the jacket. His broad chest, covered in dark hair, came into view and she traced a path down the center to find his corded abs. Nothing much sexier than that, unless she considered the sexy V he sported. Or maybe the way he hissed with pleasure at her most casual touch.
