  Angel nodded toward them and enjoyed Jordan’s smile as he caught a glimpse of the mismatched pair.

  “We’ll name our next little girl Jenny,” she promised him.

  “What about our son?”

  She leaned back and taunted him with a teasing grin. “We’ll name him after his father, of course.”

  “Of course,” he said warily, obviously aware of the mischief in her eyes.

  “We’ll call him Trouble,” she said with a laugh.

  Jordan stopped still and considered her with raised eyebrows and a devilish smile. “Angel, baby, you already have more Trouble than you can handle.”

  Before she could reply, he closed his lips on hers, and his embrace lifted her off the floor. Laughter, applause and the strains of music disappeared beneath the heat of his lips.

  When he finally broke the kiss, she gasped for air.

  “If this is the kind of Trouble you mean,” she promised breathlessly, “I’ll take all I can get.”

  They were both laughing when he kissed her again.
