this gorgeous brunette who couldn’t pump her gas. I then somehow convinced her to eat with me. She made me laugh and made me horny as hell. When the night was over and I had to leave her sleeping on that bed in the hotel, it was hard. I didn’t want to. But my life was fucked and she was traveling the world, finding herself.”
I stopped as Della reached up and wiped a tear that was running down her face. Her big blue eyes were swimming with tears.
“Then she came back into my life and saved me from hell. She changed my world. She taught me to love and she owns my soul.”
Della’s small hand went up to cover her mouth and a sob came out.
“Della Sloane, will you marry me?”
She was nodding before I could get the words out of my mouth. I stood up and slipped the diamond that I’d spent weeks trying to find onto her finger. When I found it I had known it was the one. It was worthy enough to grace Della’s hand.
“Yes,” she finally said before throwing her arms around my neck. “Yes, yes, yes,” she chanted, clinging to me.
I held her against me and realized that if there was no such thing as fate, then someone had to be up there dealing out winning hands.
“Can we skip the Mexican and go back to that hotel room instead?” I asked her.
She tilted her head back and flashed me a saucy smile. “What about your truck? I don’t want to skip that part.”
Neither did I.
