Authors: Nicole Williams

Experience had robbed William and me of our naivety when it came to our future together. We’d been slapped in the face by reality before we had a chance to get all idealistic about how life could be for us. There were no rainbows, white horses, or yellow brick roads waiting for us, but here’s why I didn’t care.

I had him.

The rest of it was the make-believe of tiara and tulle twirling five-year-old girls. Even the most imaginative of them couldn’t have dreamed up a William Hayward and I was the girl who got to share an eternity with him.

Happily ever after wasn’t a destination, it was a journey. And we were well on our way.

His lips slid over my neck, giving physical meaning to the phrase, and right before my eyes fell in response, they caught hold of a patch of night sky. A patch where a very familiar star was blaring its brightness, no longer flashing at me like a strobe. It didn’t need to anymore; its message had been delivered. I’d followed its advice, all the way back home to the man I loved.
