Marriage.
The final frontier. The end of dating. The number one cause of divorce.
I bet you every man who is about to take the plunge experiences a wide range of feelings. As a guy, whose wedding day is only seven days away, I know this.
Anxiety—Nerves are kicking in. Yeah, even confident, cocky guys like me are bound to face nuptial stage fright.
Let’s face it, forever is kind of a long time, right?
Excitement—Coriander and I are going to make it official. I’m marrying my best friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream with.
Nothing can top this moment.
That is until I got the biggest surprise of my life…
“Nothing about us is too fast.” On the contrary, I’d say it’s the other way around. Sometimes, I wish I could go back in time, not to change anything, but to feel a few things twice—especially when it comes to my relationship with Cori. “Don’t call off the wedding.”
Her spine straightens. “What?”
“I don’t want you to call off our wedding.” Fear smolders into panic. Shit. I’ve never felt so vulnerable, so transparent, so human in my life. I stand up from the bed, ready to drop to my knees and beg if necessary. She’s the best of me. And I’m in love with this woman standing in front of me. Everything she does, everything she says, everything she is. The way she laughs makes me smile, the way she talks gives me butterflies, and everything about her makes me fucking happy.
“Whatever is wrong here, we’ll fix it.”
She pauses for a moment—contemplating. “Why would I call off the wedding?”
I swallow the lump lodging in my throat. “I don’t know.”
“Is that what you want, Dean?” She removes the lid from the jar, stares into the small bottle, twists the lid back on, then narrows her eyes at me. “Do you want to call off the wedding?”
Mika Jolie is the bestselling author of the Martha’s Way series. She lives in New Jersey with her Happy Chaos—her husband and their energizer bunnies. A sports fanatic and a wine aficionado, she’s determined to balance it all and still write about life experiences and matters of the heart. Let’s face it, people are complicated and love can be messy. When she’s not weaving life and romance into evocative tales, you can find her on a hiking adventure, apple picking, or whatever her three men can conjure up.
She loves to hear from readers. Connect with Mika on Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads and Amazon.
