Special Delivery (A Valentine's Short Story) - Plot & Excerpts
It was the small one he always kept in his wallet, and one that had been taken at the start of her year teaching preschool. She wore a string of pearls and a pretty blue sweater that complemented her eyes. Her smile was warm and confident. From the moment he first saw her, she took his breath away. She’d walked into that coffee shop with keen determination and a brisk gait. And when she’d set her eyes on his, Luke’s heart had skipped a beat. No woman had ever had that effect on him, and he’d known plenty in a casual way. Up until that point, he’d led a freewheeling life without much to tie him down. But something about Amanda said being anchored to one woman wouldn’t be that bad. In fact, it might be incredible. All she had to do was say yes. Yes, to that first cup of coffee. Yes, to their first dinner date. Yes, to his proposal when he took her in his arms five months later and begged to her to always be his. Asking Amanda to be his bride was a decision he’d never regretted.
