Thirty days spent with Carter where she fell asleep each night in his arms. Every day he looked a little more relaxed, and Serenity was happier than she’d ever been in her life. She would be devastated when he grew tired of her, and he would. In this, she had no illusions. There wasn’t anything she could offer a man like him. Tears sprang unbidden to her eyes, forcing Serenity to look away before Carter spotted them. She pretended an interest in the small restaurant’s décor. Serenity had made it a point never to eat here since it seemed to have a bit of a romantic ambiance to it. The room was low lit and flowers, along with candles, were placed on each table. There were several other couples scattered throughout the room. Each one snuggled closely together the same as she and Carter were. Pride ran through her as she realized there wasn’t a single man there who was a match for him. Carter was by far the sexiest one in attendance. In place of Carter’s normal business attire, he wore a pair of khakis and a polo shirt, open at the collar.
