“I did. He said I’m perfect.”
Colt gave her a slow, wicked smile. “He’s right about that.”
Penny couldn’t believe this was happening. She suddenly had everything she had ever wished for. The man she loved. Her children—
“Da!”
Penny and Colt went still and in tandem turned to look at the twins. Reid was standing on his own two feet and Riley clapped her hands and shouted again, “Da!”
He moved swiftly across the room, lifted both of the twins into his arms and just for a moment, buried his face in the sweetness of them. When he looked at Penny again, she saw love shining in his eyes.
“I can’t believe I almost missed that,” he whispered.
Penny walked to them, wrapped her arms around her family and held on. Until she heard another truck pull up out front. Pulling back, she eyed the man she loved warily. “What else did you do?”
Colt grinned and shrugged. “It’s probably Rafe’s crew to install a picket fence.”
Laughing, Penny leaned into him and listened to the steady beat of his heart. “I thought you hated picket fences.”
“They’re not so bad,” he mused. “Besides, when the puppies get here, we’ll need it.”
“Puppies?” Shaking her head, she thought that life with Colton King would never be boring and she would always, always know what it felt like to be loved completely. Nothing could have been more perfect.
Colt bent his head, kissed her and whispered, “The adventure begins.”
