“I’ll make sure it’s worth waiting for,” she answered in a seductive tone that always made me crazy.
I knew she’d make it worth crawling through hell for, which made it that much more difficult to delay the gratification.
We stopped our banter as we arrived at the café behind my brother and Harper.
Dani did indeed eat fast, but so did Harper and Blake, which made me wonder if they had a similar arrangement to mine and Dani’s.
I inhaled my own food so fast that I hardly tasted it. Hell, what guy wouldn’t when he knew that he was going to spend his evening in a state of unimaginable pleasure?
At the end of the meal, I pulled Dani out of our booth, dumping the check on my brother as we made our escape, citing a previous engagement.
“With who?” Blake asked skeptically.
“None of your business,” I grumbled.
Blake snorted, but he picked up the tab so Dani and I could escape.
Someday, I’d pay him back by picking up lunches or dinners together, but my mind was set on one person only right at that moment.
When we were finally in my vehicle and driving away from Main Street, I heard Dani sigh as she said, “Take me home, Marcus.”
Hell, I couldn’t drive fast enough. Her words made me feel like I’d been sucker-punched in the gut.
My house had actually become home to both of us, a mixture of old and new, hers and mine, and a place where I wanted to be all the time just because Dani was there with me.
I thought about my brothers and my sister, Chloe, each one of us finding love—one right after the other. Since I was the oldest, it really should have been me to settle down first. But I wasn’t complaining. It had taken a special woman to put up with my ornery ass, and Danica had been well worth the wait!

A Note to My Readers
The Andrade family has had a special place in my heart since they first appeared in For Love or Legacy. I’m the youngest of eleven children. Although we didn’t have money, I based the Andrades on what it was like for me to grow up with so many relatives.
My parents are no longer with us, but they were happily married for almost sixty years. My mother was the storyteller in our family. She was notoriously funny. My father was much more reserved, but he loved her sense of humor. Even when they were in their eighties, if my mother told a joke, my father would look on with a smile.
