Winning Moves (Stepping Up 3)

She laughed. “You’re stuck with me this time. In fact, why don’t we go find that airport preacher right now?”
He laughed and kissed her and they really did go look, but they had no luck. Instead, they spent the flight to Denver planning a wedding in Thailand, where they and their parents could bet on forever.

THREE MONTHS LATER, Kat stood in the empty house they’d purchased, having just returned from Thailand newlyweds yet again. Jason walked in the front door and set down a box. They were only a few miles from her old place, and close to his house that was now her parents’. Not that she thought they’d ever use it. They were in love with Thailand.
“The moving guys said they’d be here in half an hour,” Jason announced.
Kat spun around in the center of the hardwood living room floor. “I love this place.”
Jason laughed and wiggled an eyebrow. “You do know we’ll have to test out every room in our own very special way?”
“Hmmm,” she said. “I do like your way of breaking in a new house.”
A car pulled into the driveway. “Is that the movers?” Kat asked, walking to the window, and then looking over her shoulder at Jason. “It’s your agent, Jason. Oh. Wait. It’s both our agents.” With the ratings for season three of Stepping Up at an all-time high, the studio had been after both Jason, and unbelievably, Kat, to sign on as judges for the new season.
Jason joined her. “They’re trying that ol’ double team thing, I guess. This is Ellie’s fault for leaving the show.”
“She got her own reality show,” Kat said. “I can’t say I blame her for moving on.”
“They’re going to offer us ridiculous money,” Jason said.
“Yeah,” Kat agreed, glancing at him. “What do you want to do?”
“I want to make that independent film that I told you about. And I want you to try your hand at producing.”
She wound her arms around his neck. “Then I say, let’s make that movie.”
Footsteps sounded on the porch and Jason grinned. “Want to teach them a lesson about surprising us like this?”
She shook her head. “Oh, yeah. What did you have in mind?”
He kissed her, a hot wild kiss that was sure to make even a grown man blush, or in this case, two grown men.
Life really was too good to be true, Kat thought.
