She blinked rapidly but not before Zack saw the tears building. “I hope those are tears of happiness,” he said.
She laughed. “They are.”
“Good, because I’m not finished.” Using his thumbs, he brushed the tears from her cheeks. “While we’re on the subject of us, I thought I’d go ahead and ask you to marry me.”
“You really know how to keep a girl on her toes, don’t you?”
“Wouldn’t want you to get bored with me.”
“Not a chance, Zack Devlin.”
“Is that a yes?” he asked.
“That’s a resounding yes.”
Feeling his emotions rising powerfully to the surface, Zack laid his forehead against hers and closed his eyes. “You just made me the happiest man in the world,” he said.
“I’m just getting warmed up,” she whispered and raised her mouth to his.
