He kissed me lightly on the forehead. “And I love you, my soon-to-be Mrs. Kline.”

Perfect happiness. That moment was perfect happiness.

Epilogue

The band I’d booked from Nashville switched to a slow song. I rose and offered my hand to Aspyn. I lowered my hands to her waist, and we started swaying to the music.

I glanced around at the lights strung all over the reception hall and the huge centerpieces dominating each table. The succulence of the steak I’d eaten earlier still lingered in my mouth. I wasn’t sure if I’d ever had a piece of meat that good before.

There was something to be said for going all out for your wedding day. Still, I had a few doubts. Because I had more money than anyone in town, I’d been able to think of little details for the wedding that seemed cool, but maybe I’d gone a little overboard.

“The ice sculpture wasn’t too much, was it?” I asked. No man wants to think he’s pissed his wife off on her wedding day.

“I said it was okay when you asked me about it before.”

“But, yeah, that was before we saw it.”

I glanced at the sculpture standing in the center of the reception hall. It was a good likeness of my beautiful new bride. Well, if she was transparent and frozen.

Aspyn laughed. “Okay, maybe it’s a little bit much, but if you’re not going to go all out for your wedding, when are you?”

I rolled that nugget around in my head for a bit before bobbing my head. “You know what, Aspyn? You’re right. If anything, I should have had a gold-plated statue of you made.”

She giggled. “Now that would have been too much.” She shrugged. “I don’t mind anything you’ve done today.” She smiled up at me. “You’ve catered to my every whim, and you did everything to make this day perfect, even got me those little sandwiches for the reception I know you hate.”

“Not like I have to eat any. I just don’t like the flavor, and of course, I did what you wanted. I needed this day to be perfect for you.”

She gave me a light kiss. “It’s beyond perfect. It’s like a dream come true.”

Warmth filled my heart at her words. I’d not done much of the planning, leaving that to her. My few ideas, such as some of the lights and the sculptures, had been last minute. I wasn’t sure if Aspyn would be mad in the end that I wasn’t deciding a lot of things, but I was a rancher, not a wedding planner.

My gaze drifted from her face to her dress, and I hardened. I sucked in a breath, resisting the urge to bury myself in my wife’s fantastic breasts right there on the dance floor.

Her white wedding gown was maybe a bit too sexy with the cleavage she was sporting, or maybe I was too eager for the honeymoon. For one thing, being pregnant made her already large boobs huge, and once her morning sickness had worn off, she’d become hornier than I was.

Some men might complain about an insatiable woman. I was not such a man.

The only problem was it wasn’t always easy to find some alone time with Kadie wandering the house, but now we’d have a good week alone with her nana taking care of her. Aspyn and I could spend all day and all night making love. No distractions. Maybe we’d even discover new ways to push each other higher into ecstasy.

I was more than happy to satisfy Aspyn’s needs during our honeymoon and try to explore sex. The one good thing about having a kid already and another on our way was that it wouldn’t be awkward.

Even if we were trying something new, we both knew how to please each other in bed. Neither of us would go to sleep unsatisfied. The sexual spark, if anything, had only grown between us.

My gaze roamed over her wedding gown down to the baby bump she was now sporting. It’d been six months since I’d asked her to marry me, and she’d moved in. In just under another six months, we’d have our second daughter, yet more proof of how much time we liked to spend in bed. Though, unlike the wonderful surprise of Kadie, the new kid had been planned.

We didn’t see any reason to wait. We both knew we wanted more kids, and when you already had a child, it wasn’t like you needed to save anything for the wedding night.

Our family was growing. I wanted a son, too, but I didn’t mind another daughter. Besides, with all the money I had, we could have tons of kids, and that was not even taking into account that the ranch was pulling in record profits. I felt blessed.

I looked around the reception hall. The gathered guests were mostly from our church. Aspyn had roped me into going, and it wasn’t like I couldn’t use more God and friends in my life.

Of course, I’d grown up in Livingston, and it being such a small town, I knew most of the people in the church already.

It was strange, really. I was getting to know them all again, even though I’d grown up around most of the people. Some had changed a lot, and some hadn’t changed at all.

Still, I felt good about these people. When I’d lived in Texas, I’d had no one, and when I’d returned to Livingston, I really only had my four friends. Now, though, I had far more than that. I had a loving wife, a beautiful daughter, a great business partner, and a community that cared about me.
