Quickly she slipped her hand under her pillow and pulled out two airline e-tickets. “After you fell asleep last night, I took the liberty of booking a flight for two—” she paused dramatically for effect, “—to the land of steel band and calypso, Trinidad. Are you game? If I remember correctly, you never got a chance to see what their carnival was like. The season is in full swing right now, I think we can still see a few shows and maybe, just maybe, get to see what J’ouvert is like.” Raina took a deep breath and savored the moment. She had a strong feeling she’d made the right decision. Jordan would totally agree to go on this trip with her. Already she was thinking of the million and one things they could do together.
Jordan smiled and grabbed her in a bear hug. “I’m so into you, I’ll do anything you ask. I want to spend some more time with you, I want this to go beyond one night.”
Raina exhaled slowly and smiled. Jordan’s response warmed her heart. “This is the start of something special, don’t you think?”
“It sure is, beautiful” Jordan confirmed. “It sure is.”
O boy, I think I could grow to love this man.
“And Jordan?”
“Yes?”
“Happy birthday!”
He swooped down to claim his kiss.

About the Author
Roxy Wilson was born and raised on a beautiful, tropical island in the Caribbean. She’s been married since 1997 and is the mother of three awesome kids. .
When she was a child, her parents provided an environment where she was immersed in all kinds of literary works, from Archie comics to Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. They also read voraciously. As a result, she modeled their behavior. It is hardly surprising, she developed a love for reading.
She’s read hundreds and hundreds of romance novels since she was about twelve years old. Many a day and night she was caught reading Sweet Dreams novels. Later, she graduated to reading Mills & Boons and so many more.
As a graduate with a degree in Education, she writes blogs which help readers to think critically about and appreciate poetry. It was in July 2012, though, she decided to delve into writing romance stories.
When she’s not reading or writing, she spends her time cooking, listening to music of the 80’s and visiting the various islands of the Caribbean.
