“We should get going then,” he says. “The wedding is in half an hour. We don’t want to be late.”

“Nope,” I shake my head and smile. “We don’t want that.”

But my hands are still on his chest, and he’s still holding me close, and neither one of us is even sort of trying to pull away and get to the wedding. Something tells me that if we aren’t careful, we might end up missing the ceremony entirely because neither one of us can seem to get enough of the other.

He kisses me then, crushing his lips to mine, owning my mouth, and warmth fills my body and my soul. This is exactly where I’m supposed to be, I realize, and that’s a wonderous feeling. For the first time in my entire life, I’m not worried or scared or sad. I’m not thinking about anything except how wonderful it feels to be loved by a man who truly understands me.

Matthew Ridge is everything I could have ever hoped for in a mate.

He’s driven and kind and gentle.

He’s intuitive.

Most of all, he’s passionate about everything he does, and that drives me crazy with excitement. He’s wonderful and gentle and so abso-fucking-lutely fantastic that I can’t believe I ever managed to survive this long without him.

Now I get to wake up every morning in his arms.

Now I get to start my day knowing that I am totally, completely, and absolutely loved.

And I get to know that me and Matthew?

We’re forever.

And always.
