Once Upon a Dare (Risky Business)(60)



Unable to suppress her emotions, she felt tears of happiness leaking down her cheeks. “Yes!” she cried, laughing through her tears and trying to commit the feeling to memory. Words couldn’t describe the joy that was pouring from her heart. She was overwhelmed by it, knowing that she’d found her soul mate in Cole, knowing he’d be there with her each day for the rest of her life. Her equal, her partner. “Yes, yes, yes.”

He leapt to his feet, swept her up in his arms, and pressed her to his solid chest. As he spun her around, the floats and the crowd dissolved into nothing more than a distant blur. Then and there, he claimed her as his own for all the world to see. And secure in the knowledge Cole Bennett would be the last man she’d ever kiss, she crushed her lips to his, claiming him right back.

Acknowledgments A huge thank you to my husband, Matt, for being so incredibly understanding and for smiling right through my crazy schedule, take-out dinners, and endless plot discussions. You really are my hero.

To Tara, Becky, and Eryn, for always making time. Your feedback and encouragement are appreciated more than you will ever know! I can’t possibly thank you enough, but maybe one day I’ll be able to return the favor in some way. Until then, awkward hugs all around!

And last, but never least, to Heather Howland, who took a chance on me. Your patience, guidance, and humor have strengthened Cole and Olivia’s story, and for that I am grateful. I’m thrilled to have Once Upon a Dare join the Brazen family and I’m damn lucky to have you for an editor!
