PROLOGUE

 

Dear Diary,

 

It was everything I expected and more… The fairy tale wedding, right down to the last, perfect detail. My best friend, Jason, told me if my smile was any brighter, he’d be blinded by it and that was after he joked about having to wear his sunglasses to ward off the dazzling sparkle of my one-and-a-half-carat diamond ring.

I am married to the most beautiful man in the world. I’m the center of his universe and he is my everything. He professed to love, honor and cherish me in vows so sweet and tender they took my breath away and the depth of emotion in his eyes left me trembling. He loves me so!

I can still hear the string quartet playing on the terrace overlooking the beautiful, majestic lake and I remember every detail of the old restored mansion-turned-hotel restaurant where our guests laughed and danced under a glistening canopy of stars.

I’m blissfully in love and oh-so optimistic. I’m the luckiest girl in the world! This is what I dreamed of, what I yearned for. Every second, every minute by his side is wonderful beyond words…
