A Face in the Crowd Read online

  Cathy placed her hand in Oliver’s and retreated to her reserved chair. This was it.

  His hand was warm on hers, safe. It was a hand she looked forward to holding the rest of her life. As they exchanged vows in front of their best friends and family with the ocean waves crashing and the sun shining, her heart was full.

  “I now pronounce you husband and wife.”

  Oliver wrapped his hand around her shoulders and dipped her back for a kiss, their first kiss as a married couple. She would never get tired of hearing that. They joined hands and made their way back down the aisle.

  “So, what do you say, Sexy Lexie? Are you ready to start a life with me? I promise it’ll be an adventure.”

  She stopped when they reached the dunes and stood up on her toes to wrap her arms around his neck. “There is nothing I want more.”

  He kissed her again and then they walked through the sand taking their first steps toward their new life together.
