Don’t Call Me Sweetheart
Page 21
“Yes, Christian.” Whitney purred, leaning into him drawing his face downward so that she could intersperse each word with feathery kisses of her own across his cheeks, his brow, his closed eyes. “I’m yours now, forever, for always. I love you.”
As Christian swept her into his arms and shouldered his way down the steps and through the crowd Whitney was dimly aware of people shouting their approval and well-wishes at them. It was hard to notice anything other than the strong arms of her husband—her husband!—about her as she was placed into a waiting limousine and they sped away. She discovered that night that consummating a marriage, a real marriage, was the sweetest agony one could endure and endure and endure.
About the Author
Jeanette Ward is a bit of a work-in-progress. She’s done the college thing (she earned a very unromantic degree in business management), the mother thing (her children are old enough that she notices lag time between phone calls, home and drive-by feedings) and the work thing (everything from bank teller to medical research). Now she’s found a comfortable niche in life and intends to enjoy each and every second she’s there.
Married to the love of her life, a man who instinctively knows how to take romance off the page, Jeanette spends her days reading, writing and thinking about romance. An RWA member for ten years, she has won or placed in a number of national contests, but knows that contest wins can’t compare with telling a story that touches a reader’s heart.
