"Where's my present? It's Christmas Eve, you didn't forget to get me one, did you?"
Laura Lowell stopped in her tracks and looked up at Aiden Shaw, her crystal-clear eyes filled with anticipation.
'This was their first Christmas Eve together.'
The smile on Aiden Shaw's lips quickly reached the corners of his eyes. He raised a hand and pinched her cheek. "What about mine?"
"What?"
It took Laura Lowell a moment to realize what he meant.
Aiden Shaw held his hand out in front of her, his voice warm and gentle. "My present. Where is it?"
"I got you a present, but I want to see mine first."
Aiden Shaw smiled, smoothing down her wind-tousled hair. He covered Laura Lowell's eyes with his long, slender hand. "No peeking."
"Okay, I won't peek."
Laura Lowell took a slight step back, leaning into Aiden Shaw's embrace. A lovely smile graced her soft lips.
