The Ambassador and Me: an unlikely love story (The Ambassador Trilogy Book 1) (28 page)

“Are you having second thoughts?”

He bent down and kissed me, bringing my body next to his.

“Not at all. We are going to make quite the entrance.”

The black SUV pulled up all waxed and shiny. Ronnie jumped out to open the door for us.

He smiled at me and patted Fabrice on the shoulder.

“I know Ronnie, she’s something else.” I slid across the seat to the other side and carefully fixed my dress. Fabrice slid in next to me and took my hand.

After the short drive, Ronnie pulled up to the red carpet. He let us out with the stream of other cars. Fabrice stepped out and reached for my hand. I hesitated. I looked at Fabrice and his eyes told me it was going to be okay. His eyes said this is what we were supposed to be doing and nothing was going to stop him. I knew at that moment there was no turning back.

“Let’s do this, sweet Isabella.” He grabbed my hand and kissed it as the cameras flashed. This was it.
