Chapter 2

It was an unseasonably warm evening in late February when Remy confided to Lane the problems he was running into with planning their wedding. Well, problems wasn’t the right word for it…more like snags, really, as they were little things here and there, but Lane knew Remy well enough to recognize when something was bothering him. They sat on the balcony of Lane’s condo downtown, looking out over the dark rapids of the James River and sharing a bottle of wine as they snuggled together beneath a large stadium blanket on a wicker loveseat. From the contemplative look on his lover’s face, Lane knew Remy was thinking about the wedding again. Even with grant proposals taking up the bulk of his time, his mind drifted to their impending nuptials whenever there was a quiet moment.

Resting his head on Remy’s shoulder, Lane sipped at his wine. “Let me guess,” he murmured into his glass. “You’re a million miles away right now, somewhere on the sandy shores of Maui.”

With a soft laugh, Remy stirred and draped an arm around Lane’s shoulders to hold him close. “It’s only about four thousand and seven hundred miles away. I checked.”

“That’s as the crow flies,” Lane pointed out. “What about Delta?”

“American Airlines is cheaper.” Remy’s voice was distant, distracted. Lane sat up and looked at him, amused. When he saw the expression on Lane’s face, he smiled. “What? I looked it up already. This better last forever because that’s about how long we’re going to be paying for it.”

Lane leaned forward and kissed the tip of Remy’s nose. “It will last forever. I love you—”

“And I love you,” Remy said, leaning in to claim a real kiss.

Lane grinned against his mouth. “And soon we’ll have the credit card bills to prove just how much. Now, tell me, what’s on your mind?”

Remy sighed. “So much of this is out of my hands, and I hate it. I don’t know squat about the location—I can’t check out caterers, or hotels, or anything, without making a trip out there and I can’t afford that.”

“You can look online,” Lane suggested.

But Remy shook his head. “It’s not the same. How do I know I’m getting the right price? How do I know the place looks like what it says it looks like? The website might make it seem like the Ritz Carlton and then when we show up, we find out we’re staying at the Econolodge. I’m not spending a thousand dollars for a travel package just to land in a dive hotel. I want only the best for us, damn it. Is that asking too much?”

Lane cuddled up against Remy again and looked out at the lights of the city across the river from his condo. “Well, I know you’ve been looking around online. What do all the sites suggest?”

“They say to hire a wedding planner in the area.” Remy scoffed and downed the last of his wine, throwing his head back to finish off the glass. “How am
