good.”
    He claimed her lips in a heated kiss and then pulled away, his forehead resting against hers.
    “Let me try this again,” he said, and lifted his glass once more. “To Myrna. Sexier than sin. Hornier than Trey.”
    She snorted, thinking she could give the guy a run for his money.
    “More irresistible than a cold beer on a hot afternoon.”
    “And far less romantic than her husband,” she said, fighting the urge to tackle him to the deck and have her way with him. She knew she needed to allow these moments of tenderness between them to play through without instigating mind-blowing sex. Well, sometimes. Brian needed this kind of charming affection to make him happy, and she most assuredly wanted him delirious with joy.
    “He doesn’t mind,” he said.
    “Yeah, he does. He’s just too sweet to admit it.”
    “I am not sweet.”
    “Whatever you say,” she said with an indulging smile. “Sweetie.”
    So maybe she couldn’t give him a baby as easily as they’d anticipated, but she could meet his other needs. Even ones she didn’t necessarily share.
    “I raise a toast to my dearest husband, Brian. Sexier than an Italian sports car. Sweeter than syrup. More romantic than a sunset on the beach.”
    Which they were missing because they were so wrapped up in each other. Not that she minded.
    “What else?” he prompted.
    She searched her brain for similes. “More tender than a Crock-Pot roast.”
    He laughed, the arm around her back tightening to pull their lower bodies closer. “See,” he murmured, “you are romantic. No one has ever compared me to a hunk of meat before.”
    “You don’t hang around your groupies much, do you?”
    “Not if I can help it.” He lifted his glass once again. “To us. Two very different people perfect for each other.”
    She’d definitely drink to that. Eyes locked with Brian’s, she smiled and clinked her glass against his before sipping her champagne. She’d wanted to come up with some unique and unusual way or place to make love to him while they were here, but it occurred to her that her planning something heart-stoppingly romantic would be much more meaningful to him. And knowing Brian, she also knew that if she romanced him, he would rock her world in the sack. Or on the beach. Or wherever they ended up sharing the day together.
    His lips tasted of champagne when she kissed him briefly, but she pulled away before she got lost in him again. “I’ll be right back,” she promised and returned to the bedroom to find her clothes. She needed to talk to the concierge before the hour grew too late so she could plan a perfect day for her perfect husband.
    “Where are you going?” Brian said as he entered the room behind her. “I thought we were watching the sunset.”
    Not bothering with underclothes, she pulled a pale blue sundress over her head and presented her back to Brian so he’d zip her up. “We were, but it’s over.”
    As he slowly tugged her zipper up the back of her sundress. “Oh. I was too wrapped up in you to notice.”
    Damn, the man said the most knee-weakening things. She was never going to be able to outdo him in the romance department, but she was going to try on their honeymoon, by God. “I’ll be back soon. I’m just going out to plan a surprise. For you.”
    Over her shoulder, she watched a delighted smile spread across his gorgeous face.
    “A surprise? Is it that sexual adventure you promised?”
    His lips brushed against her shoulder, and she was half tempted to coax him into the very inviting bed. But if she did that, she would have to delay her plans a day. Or, knowing Brian’s insatiable sexual appetite, two or three days.
    “It might be. You’ll have to wait and see. Are we going out for dinner tonight or staying in?”
    His hands slid around her body to her belly, and the brush of his lips became a seeking caress up the side of her neck. “I don’t think I can keep my hands off you long enough to behave properly in
