Three Promises Page 25

by Lily Everett


  Standing, Miles held out his hand to lead Greta down to the dance floor where other couples were beginning to join the newlyweds. It felt amazing to be able to pull Greta into his arms, to feel the warm, trusting weight of her against his chest as they swayed together.

  “My lonely days are over,” Miles murmured, echoing his favorite line of Coop and Viv’s song.

  “Not just yours—the lonely days are over for every one of your closest friends!” Greta laughed, cupping the back of his neck and nuzzling a kiss under his jaw. “The question is, who are you going to fix up next?”

  “I think my matchmaking days are over. I’d rather spend my time showing our daughter the flowers in her great-grandmother’s garden that inspired her name … and making love to my wife.”

  He felt the shiver that raced over Greta’s skin. “That sounds good to me,” she said, breathless enough to make desire surge through Miles.

  “Let’s leave the romance to the magic of Sanctuary Island,” he whispered. “This place doesn’t need our help to make people fall in love.”

  Miles twirled Greta into a spin and then dipped her low and laughing over his arm. The stars twinkled overhead, reflected in the smooth waters of the lake and in the fathomless happiness of his wife’s eyes. The air smelled sweet and green, lush with growing things and alive with the breeze rolling in from the ocean beyond the pines. In the darkness beyond the flickering lanterns, wild horses ranged free along the sands and the people of Sanctuary Island lived out their lives … and, if they were very lucky, found true and everlasting love.
