“It’s not much. But I hope that when you wear this ring, it’ll remind you how much I love you. That you’re mine. Every day, every way. But I wanted to put it on you here, in the water. Because it’s the one place I can be totally transparent about what’s inside of me.”
Oh, look at that. He could tell her how he felt after all. The magic of the water hadn’t faded and he prayed it never would.
“Not much?” she whispered through her tears as she held out her hand to allow him to slip the band over her knuckle, where it sparkled in the sunlight from her third finger. “That’s everything.”
“You’re everything,” he corrected. “Marry me and spend the rest of your life in the water with me.”
She nodded, shaking a few more tears loose. “Make it a beach wedding and I’m sold. Except, I’m kind of curious where in the world you could possibly take me on a honeymoon that would be better than this?”
She kicked at the crystal-blue surf, drenching them both, but he didn’t care. “Leave that to me. I promise to make it worth your while.”
Dex had exactly the thing in mind. When he got back to the bungalow, he called Mick Frasier. If Emma wanted a memorable honeymoon, he’d deliver it—in the form of a sugar plantation, all to themselves. He’d talk Frasier into it or die trying.
Mick stalked into the Internet café in Petit Ciotat, the nearest town to Villa Sucre, the sugar plantation he was supposed to be getting ready for renovation.
He paid for a cup of coffee and an hour of Internet time, and threw himself into the nearest chair. He needed to make this quick, but his cell phone only had intermittent reception, and at some point over the past week his e-mails had stopped downloading.
And since Will wasn’t taking this roadblock seriously, Mick needed to send him a point-by-point detailed breakdown of the disaster that was this plan.
He took a sip of the hot coffee, his first real one in days, and watched the browser load up. He didn’t have the patience for this. Not today.
Not while
she
was back at the estate, plotting his ruin.
He flipped through the first dozen e-mails easily. Yes, he’d arrived, and all was fine. No, Mom, he didn’t need cookies sent in a care package. No, Jake, he didn’t need porn sent either. Yes, Miralinda was beautiful.
No, he hadn’t met any beautiful women yet. Okay, that answer was a total lie. But the truth was beyond complicated, and he had a job to do.
But before he could settle down to an all caps explanation of why Will needed to get his ass down to the Caribbean, pronto, another e-mail slid into his inbox.
Dex wanted to borrow the plantation? Mick let out a harsh laugh. A few heads turned his way, and he glowered back at the curious eyes.
No way could he promise the plantation would be ready for visitors anytime soon. Not that he was giving it up. No sir, not going to happen. But he wasn't in the business of making promises he couldn’t follow through on. His fingers hovered over the keyboard, ready to send his friend a “sorry, man” brush-off. But they had each other’s backs, and Dex was asking him for a favor.
He marked the e-mail unread instead. And he pushed away from the computer. This wasn’t Will’s fight, it was Mick’s. He was going back to Villa Sucre to tell Cara Levasseur she needed to get her gorgeous ass off his estate, once and for all.
