Chapter Twenty-Two

Theodora luxuriated in Judah’s company, all but forgetting her curiosity about their final destination as the hours passed. When they entered the town of Beaver Creek, three hours into their trip, she found herself itching for her camera. The landscape was absolutely beautiful—so much so, she knew trying to capture even a glimpse of it with her camera in a moving car wouldn’t do it justice. With this in mind, she sat back and enjoyed the view wistfully.

She grew quiet upon seeing a gigantic, gorgeous resort at the base of what was obviously a ski slope during the winter—but was, in the first couple weeks of October, a wonderful display of all the pretty colors of autumn. After a few minutes, when she realized they were headed in its direction, she turned toward Judah and murmured his name.

“Sweetheart?”

“Is—that—that resort? Is that where we’re going?”

He looked away from the road long enough to wink at her, and she gasped.

“Wow.”

It took another fifteen minutes for them to reach the hotel grounds. When they drove by the welcome sign, Theodora had to do a double take.

Holy shit, she thought in awe. He brought me to The Ritz.

Entering the main lobby, Theodora told herself over and over to keep her cool. She felt like she was in a dream. The décor was mountain lodge chic, and she loved it. It was both cozy and elegant at the same time. When Judah checked them in and she heard they’d be staying in a suite on the eighth floor—with a clear view of the mountains—she thought, perhaps, she really had fallen into a dream.

Theodora trailed after Judah as he walked around the suite, checking to make sure it was to his liking. When he looked satisfied, Theodora excused herself to the bathroom. Having contained her excitement for as long as she could, she needed an outlet—and there was one person she wanted to tell more than any other.

As she paced back and forth across the marble tiled floor, her phone pressed to her ear, Theodora sent up a silent prayer. It was almost seven in the evening, which meant there was a chance her call wouldn’t be answered. When she heard Harper’s voice replace that of the ringtone, she sighed in blissful relief.

“Harper!” she whisper-shouted. “Oh, my god, you will not believe where I am right now.”

“Teddy, why are you whispering?”

“I’m hiding in the bathroom,” she confessed as she spoke a little louder. “Judah surprised me. He came by the gallery early this afternoon and told me he wanted to take me somewhere. He told me to pack a bag, so I did, and then he drove us to Beaver Creek. Harper—we’re staying at The Ritz. The freaking Ritz! There’s a fireplace next to the bathtub. A fireplace!”

“What?!”

“I know. I know.” She smacked her palm to her forehead and laughed at herself. She was repeating almost everything that came out of her mouth. “It’s so pretty here, Harp. I can’t believe he did this.” Blowing out a sigh, she turned and walked to the bathtub.
