  “I’m all for that. Is there anything else you need to tell me?”

  He hesitated, surprising her. “One more thing.”

  “Oh God, what is it?”

  “I don’t want to hurt you.”

  “Say it!”

  “I’ve turned over everything I was able to find out regarding your kidnapping to the police. Azalie is going to be questioned about money she took to help the kidnapper take you. I’m pretty sure she’ll be arrested and charged.”

  “Wow, I never imagined she would stoop so low, but I knew all along she was jealous and desperate. I’m not hurt. I feel sorry for her and especially for Beau.”

  “Sheila’s a good grandmother. She’ll come out fine.”

  “You’re right. From what I’ve seen she loves that little girl.”

  “When your grieving process is over and we’ve tied the knot, perhaps you’d like to have one of your own.”

  Her heart swelled for this sweet man. Nothing could stop her from living her best life with him from now on. She inched closer to his side and ran a hand over his chest. “What better time than the present to get started on our own family?”
