His wedding gift to me was a pair of beautiful, custom-made, Italian silk shoes, and they fit like a glove.

“Thank God,” Luke murmurs against my mouth as he carries me over the threshold of the honeymoon suite and closes the door with his foot.

I’m all gorgeous and demure (but in a sexy kind of way) in a long, white dress, and Luke is all tall and sexily rumpled in a morning suit.

“Sweet Mystery of Life, at Last I’ve Found You,” is not, thank God, playing in the background, because my blood is pounding so loudly in my ears that I can’t hear another thing.

Before we can make it to the bed we’re all over each other like a rash. In frustration, because his fingers are shaking so badly that he can’t undo the tiny pearl buttons on the back of my dress, Luke slides his hands under my skirt and pushes it up to my waist, and then he’s—

Oh.

My.

It’s a crime what this man can do with his hands…
