If I didn’t love you already, I would definitely love you now. Savannah still could not believe she’d actually replied to that statement by asking Adam what he wanted for dinner! His had been such a momentous declaration…and she had answered it by inquiring about the state of his appetite. For the tenth time that evening, Savannah wanted to kick herself. She’d longed for someone to care about her. And now that someone did… Well, to put it frankly, she feared she’d ruined it. The plain fact was, Adam had caught her unprepared. She’d been so busy poking fun at the notion of hand-wrestled elk steaks that she hadn’t been thinking about the wedding day they’d shared or the importance her mail-order groom might have attached to it. If I didn’t love you already, I would definitely love you now. Thrilled by the memory of his gruff assertion all the same, Savannah smiled at Adam. But her new husband merely cast her a vaguely morose look—the same look he’d worn for at least five minutes now, ever since they’d left the dining room, crossed the lobby and started ascending the stairs to their private rooms.
