"Excuse me? You are doing what exactly with him?" Victoria's said, almost yelling. "Here I am waiting for you to get this over with and come back here, and you're telling me shit about enjoy your stay with him. You are not thinking straight" "Would you relax a little bit Vicky?" Savannah said. "Calm down" She had just returned from her evening walk on the beach. It had become sort of a habit. Sometime Matt joined her, but today he had to work so she had gone alone. She had just returned to the living room when Vicky called. Vicky hissed. "No I will not calm down" she replied. "I don't understand why you are doing this to yourself. Have you forgotten how much he hurt you? Well if you have, I haven't. I'm your best friend, Savannah, and I know how hurt you were when he pushed you away. And there is a chance that he might do it again. I don't want to lose you. I almost did the last time"Savannah smil

She was turned on. She wanted this as much as he did. And that was a lot.More than anything he’d ever desired in his life. He moved away from her with a teasing grin on his face. Then he stepped back, kicking off his shoes and shrugging out of his shirt. Mesmerised, she simply stared at him. His shoulders were wide, his chest broad and tapering down to a lean waist, his skin gleaming like burnished gold in stark contrast to the mass of black curling hair arrowing down his strong body. His long arms were hard and muscular and had their own dusting of hair. His hands...his hands were unfastening his trousers. Savannah gasped, her heart skipping a beat. "Something wrong, Savvie?" he asked as he moved towards her again. His hands settled on her waist and Savannah was glad of the support, shaken by the intensity of her own desire for him. "No," she murmured. "Never more

He put a hand between them to touch her cheek and then he carefully pulled her away until he looked down into her eyes.The stark emotion there. The devastation. It was like a knife to the gut. She looked so very vulnerable. Fragile. And scared. She looked scared to death. Was she afraid of him? Of what had happened? He couldn’t bear it if she hated herself for giving in to the overwhelming tension that had been building ever since he’d brought her to the island.  “What are you thinking?” he asked hoarsely. “Tell me you don’t regret this, Savvie. Anything but regret.” Slowly she shook her head and he felt something loosen inside him. Relief. But it was only the first step. He caressed her cheek, enjoying the feel of her satiny skin. No matter how much he’d told himself that he was better off without her, that he was well rid of her, he could

She leaned forward, forgetting their vow not to dredge up the past. “And I was the woman you were supposed to marry, Matt. Didn’t I deserve anything from you? Besides a payoff and a get-the-hell-out-of-my-life?” “I’m here now,” he said quietly. “I was angry. I had a right to be. I won’t apologize for that. But I’m here now and I want us to try again. We both made mistakes.” She had to let go of the resentment and anger that She had to put it away because there was no way for her to win. She leaned back in her chair. “So where are we going to drive tomorrow? Should I wear one of those scarves and huge sunglasses so I look chic?” she asked.  He relaxed, relief stark in his eyes that she was letting the matter drop.“Wear that very sexy sundress that Rosa bought you.” he replied.  Sh

"But why does he wish to see you before the ceremony? This is not normal.” The older woman rang her hands. “Ai, ai, ai. Men, they are not rational. I Honestly don't understand them sometimes.” Tess stifled a smile. Her future mother-in-law had very definite views of what constituted proper male and female behavior. Tess’s father had confounded her several times over the past few days, wanting to approve the wedding dress, insisting on consultation with the chef for the reception and a host of other equally odd, to her mind, requests. She patted Amy Black's arm. “It’s all right. He just wants to see. He won’t touch anything.” She said.  Her father had been ecstatic at the news of her upcoming marriage and had come over immediately to take part in the preparations, much to Dash’s mother’s dismay. She was not used to having a man around giving orders in the do
