“I’m heading home. Coll and the guys are at our place tonight, and the men need to know about this. Jim needs to confirm some stuff too.”I looked at my aunt. “I have to thank you for telling us this. I know we look like a bunch of girls just drinking margaritas and being irresponsible, but you came on a night when we tend to separate the guys from the girls, and the husbands get to babysit.”She unexpectedly smiled. “It’s always a fun night when it’s just the ladies.” She looked around the room. “I hope you can help him. I only wish that Jane and Jenny had the same support, but the torture that Alex endured was unbearable in comparison.” She walked over and hugged me. “You know what?” She stepped back and smiled at me for the first time in forever. “I think it was pretty nasty, but you were so much like your mother to play that video at your wedding. I was just mortified for your guests and their opinions of you after you played that.”“I didn’t give two fucks about what they thought

“I didn’t want him in the ground,” I answered. “I begged my mom to keep him safe in the casket. We could take him home in the box, and I could still be with him. He might look like he was sleeping, but I could see him whenever I wanted. I just wanted to take him home with me. I couldn’t live without him.” My mind shifted and snapped out of this lucid memory. I was thrust into the present, lying on this couch drenched in sweat, panting as if I’d run a mile. “Fuck! Oh, my God. That drunk mother fucker did it.” I sat up, pulling myself out of the trance, and rubbed my face as if I’d just woken up from another night terror. “He blamed me so he wouldn’t go to fucking jail?”“Alex, I need you to try and calm down some,” the lady said. “Please, you’ve broken out of your hypnosis, and I need to pull you from it safely. While we go back under, we’re going to help you cope with Albert’s death and deal with your emotions about your father.”“I hope to hell this works because if it doesn’t, I mig

C H A P T E R T H I R T Y - N I N EBREEIt was what I liked to refer to as March madness. Well, MarchMadness was already a coined phrase, but it took on a differentmeaning for me since, as Nat would say, it was my birthday month.The twenty-first day of March was my birthday, and because of our fantastic new friendship with Avery, Ash, and Elena, Cass and Nat had managed to pull off a surprise trip to Branson, Missouri on Jim’s company jet. It was the very same jet Alex and I had used to travel to Florida before our relationship fell apart, so that wasn’t a detail that made me feel super happy.Being on the private airplane was bitter-sweet because I couldn’t help but remember mine and Alex’s better times—everything that happened before the funeral had messed with him in ways that I could’ve never imagined. I’d inwardly accepted how much I missed him, but the drinks kept the pain of losing Alex over a month ago at bay.I couldn’t say precisely how long it’d been. I was certainly n

“Whether she knew they were stealing from her or not,” Alex said.I nearly jumped out of my skin when I heard his voice as he finished speaking for Cass. I turned back and stared at his brilliant smile and his lighter expression, looking more handsome than I remembered.“You’re here?” I said, confused and in utter shock that Alex was here and joined by his closest friends.“Well,” he held up a boarding pass and pulled his sunglasses off to read the pass, “according to this, I’m not.”Did he go through this attraction too? Wait, this was Alex’s idea. All of it, and my girlfriends did well in acting like it was theirs.I smiled. “Third class passenger and didn’t get a boat?” I tried to guess.His eyes locked with mine. “No boat and my passenger gave up his life jacket. He was reported to be preaching to the ones who were going down with the ship.” He read the information with a broad grin.“Preaching?” I cocked my head to the side. “What passenger were you who selflessly gave up your li

“It counts for something, right?” he asked. “But I can watch our movie with you a hundred times, Dorothy, with my new heart you’ve insisted the wizard give me. I will gladly watch that movie with you.” He kissed my ring finger. “But only if you put my outward expression of love on your finger.”I sniffed as I started to cry, officially caught up in the moment with the man I loved more than anything, and I felt more solid about marrying him than I felt about anything else in this world.Alex returned to bended knee in front of me. “I humbly ask you to marry me or at least start over and date me until the day comes that you feel confident enough to become my wife.”“What if I told you that I felt confident enough that I would marry you now if I could?” I knelt in front of him.“Well, that would put us all back on the plane and off to Vegas as your birthday evening stop, doing that Titanic experience,” he looked back atAvery’s grin, as she leaned into Jim’s side, “and Elvis handling our
