The Bride Said, 'I Did?'. Cathy Gillen Thacker

>

      

      “What a night.”

      Beau took Dani’s hand in his and led her toward the kitchen. “Do you think we’re going to remember?”

      The idea that she might never be able to recall not just her wedding but the conception of her first—maybe her only—child was more dismaying than Dani wanted to let on. She might not want to remember anything embarrassing, but she certainly wanted to recall the parts that weren’t!

      “I don’t know.” Dani leaned against the refrigerator door, and looked up into eyes that had never seemed so blue. “I want to—”

      “I do, too.” Beau’s dark brows drew together as he looked down at her in mock seriousness. “So I guess there’s only one thing to do.”

      “And what’s that?” Dani prodded. Reading the sudden mischief on his face it was all she could do not to smile as well.

      Beau’s sexy grin widened alarmingly as he looked deep into her eyes. “We try to reenact the conception, of course.”
