Free Wedding at Willow Lake by Mary Manners Page A

place—the inn and the land surrounding it—was meant to be explored and filled with the squeals of children. Maybe you and Catherine will add to the army?”
    “Cate would be over the moon for that, and I’m good with it, too. But let’s get the ceremony over, first.”
    “Soon enough, my friend.” Ryder laughed and smacked him on the back. “There’s the music now. We’d better head down there. You don’t want to be late.”
    “Nope. You have the rings?”
    “Right here.” Ryder patted the breast pocket of his tux. “Safe and sound.”
    They’d been safe and sound for a decade. Now, it was time to put both rings in their rightful place—on the marriage finger.
    Brody descended the steps and made his way to the head of the crowd, turning to face his friends as the music crescendoed. One by one Ali, Maci, and Josie appeared along with Ryder, Hunter and Mason through the inn’s French doors to flank him beneath the wedding arch Mason had constructed. A slight pause and then Catherine’s gaze met his as she, covered in a mist of veil, stepped through the doors.
    His heart soared and all thought fled—everything but his deep and pure love for her—as she floated toward him over a carpet of rose petals. The crowd seemed to disappear, leaving only the two of them as the distance between them closed. All the years of waiting—and hoping—melted away. He took her hands in his and sighed.
    Together, they’d finally made it home.
