A chocolate aroma overpowered the scent of animal around them, and the aggressive goat reached up to nibble.
“Get that away from him!” Chad yelped, then quickly composed himself. He swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbling and said, “Amber Lorraine Myers, I was the boy who left mud pies on your porch for you all those years ago. I was the one who slipped spiders into your book bag, and threw spit wads into your hair when you weren’t looking. I guess what I’m saying is I loved you even before I knew what love was, and now, before this Billy goat swallows your ring, please put the mud pie into your mouth and tell me if you’ll marry me.”
“You’re crazy!” Amber held the baggie away from the goat. Tears threatened and her heart expanded, so fluffy and light, she thought she was flying away. She nodded, blinking too fast. This was what she wanted. This man, this geeky, overly analytical and brilliant man, was exactly the one she wanted and loved.
“Yes, I’ll marry you, Chad Powers. I will.”
“Then suck on the mud pie so I can slip that ring over your finger.”
Taking a breath, and still not believing this silly, quirky, but so very intelligent man could have planned such a creative way of proposing to her, Amber put the mud pie into her mouth and moaned.
It tasted of dark chocolate, Kahlua liqueur, and raspberry. Sure enough, when the treat melted in her mouth, she held a huge diamond ring between her teeth.
Chad slipped it onto her finger, while his mouth and tongue licked the remnants of the mud pie from her lips.
And Amber had to admit, for being a klutz, Chad Powers made some pretty smooth moves.
T*H*E * E*N*D
Thank you for reading Chad and Amber’s love story. I hope you enjoyed all of the Myers sisters’ stories, starting with Honey in Going Haywire, then Candi in Going Toe to Mistletoe, and Ginger in Going Hearts Over Heels, as they all find true and lasting love in Sapphire Falls, Nebraska.
If you liked Going Gets Hot, please leave a review to help others find and enjoy Going Gets Hot. Thanks!
It’s been fun visiting and populating Erin Nicholas’ magical town of Sapphire Falls, where love is hot and fast, and the townsfolk are down to earth and loads of fun. I thank Erin for opening up her world to me and other writers.
I have loads of love stories to tell, and you might catch a glimpse of the Myers and Wolff families in my future stories.
