“Well apparently the boy, man now I guess, is alive and well. And to make it even more interesting, Brogan hired him on as a wilderness guide and from what our sovereign says, Brady Connelly is definitely home to stay.”

  “Great. Just great.”

  Tatum walked toward them ending the conversation.

  “Ready to go?” Dale asked her.

  She covered a yawn with one hand while pressing the other into her back causing her pregnant belly to bulge even more. “We were ready an hour ago but we couldn’t miss out on this special day.”

  Tatum waddled closer to him and tried to stretch up to kiss his cheek. “Jeez, help a girl out, Steve, bend down here.” He leaned forward and she planted a kiss on him. “I’d say make her happy but I know you will so instead I’ll say I hope the scientists work out how men can carry babies before you two decide to have children and you get to do this part.”

  He laughed and hugged her to his side. “If I haven’t said it before now, Tatum, welcome home. I think having you around will lead to interesting times.” He eyed Dale as the other man fidgeted beside them.

  “Thank you. I’m really happy to be back. Come on, sheriff. Let’s go home.” She linked her arm with Dale’s and ambled toward the door.

  Doc came up next to him and slipped her arm around his waist. “Do you think we’ll know what the deal is with those two anytime soon?”

  “It’s inevitable in this small town.” Steve tugged her around in front of him. “So, are you ready to go home, Doc McKenna?”

  “Yes,” she sighed and laid her cheek on his chest. “I’m exhausted and I’ve done nothing but sit on my butt all day and talk.”

  “Well I’m sure flapping those sexy lips takes energy.” He bent to plant a kiss on said lips. “You can nap in the truck because there’s no way I’m letting you sleep through our wedding night. I’ve got plans for you, Dr. McKenna.”

  “Oh, sounds intriguing but I’ve got some plans of my own.”

  “Really?” He arched an eyebrow. “And just what might those be?”

  She stood on tiptoes, put her mouth to his ear and whispered.

  The End

  About the Author

  Years of slavery to four young aliens and their sire failed to squash the love of writing or reading hiding behind the façade of a boring, stay-at-home mum. Escaping from the mother ship with vivid imagination intact, Rhian uses her superpowers for good.

  Okay, so that’s not quite how it happened. Married to her very own hero for over 20 years and raising a family of four kept writing on the back burner, but now with more time to spend on the things that she loves most, Mr. Muse and Rhian have taken over.

  Writing multiple genres keeps life interesting and busy. Rhian can be found in numerous places online, where her love of talking is well satisfied. An Aussie who’s spent years living overseas, Rhian and family are now happy residing back in their native land down under.

  Rhian welcomes comments from readers. You can find her website and email address on her author bio page at www.ellorascave.com.
