Synopsis
More than a year after becoming a loving couple, one phone call threatens Azure and Frank's relationship on the eve of their Valentine's Day wedding.

Frank clams up due to a health concern, keeps it secret, and distances himself from Azure. His bride-to-be deserves better than an ailing husband.

Azure feels the sting of Frank's rejection. No matter how hard she tries, she can't breakthrough his wall of silence. To her, his failure to communicate means one thing. He's called off the wedding.

Will Cupid's arrow strike a nerve? Or—will love conquer all in time for their Valentine's Day vows?

Excerpt:

Valentine's Day Eve…
New Orleans' frosty midday air didn't affect Azure one bit. And her snug-fit jeans, sweater, and short jacket had little to do with the warmth she felt. She strolled with Frank through the French Quarter. The clutch he had on her hand heated her all over. Even though heels gave her five-foot-six inches a boost, she still had to look up into his dark, brown eyes.

He looked at her, his jovial attitude on display. "You're so easy to love, Azure."

Her heart thumped with delight. Here they were, at the caterer's door, a day before their Valentine's Day wedding, ready to confirm the cake choice for their intimate reception. "Let me hear you say the words."

"I…love…you." He leaned down toward her.

His smooth baritone voice wrapped her like silk. Her erratic heartbeat intensified. She trembled when he kissed the soft spot under her ear. "I love you, too, Frank. Imagine where I'd be if you hadn't followed your instincts that night. I might have died in the trunk of my car."

"Either the cosmos had aligned or PlayDate dating service possessed supernatural powers."

"I know."

"When your apparition appeared—" He stopped talking. "I don't want to think about that."

"You found me. That's what matters." Azure resituated her teal-colored, knit beret, fingering shoulder length, chestnut strands of hair from her mouth.

Feathery wisps of air touched her skin. She scrunched her shoulder, lengthening the time he snuggled her there. His lips transferred to the tip of her nose. Then, his mind-blowing kiss surpassed her expectations.

Azure Blackstone Holidays Series introduced Azure Blackstone and Frank Hickman.

Azure's Heart catches up with the same loving couple engrossed in a brand new crisis.

This sweet romantic short story can be read as a standalone.

Enjoy.

Will Cupid's arrow strike a nerve? Or—will love conquer all in time for their Valentine's Day vows?

Excerpt:
The fact she tracked him down enlarged his heart. Azure’s tenacity never ceased to astonish him. He imagined the amount of time she spent riding around the expansive lake until she found him.

“I have a message for you.” She wasted no time on formalities. “Your doctor called. The appointment you didn’t keep yesterday…you have until noon today to get there.”

“I’ll be right down.”

“Don’t bother.”

The angst in her voice died out when she ended the call. Her words registered deeply, all the way to his soul. She reentered her car. The sight of her backing out spurred him into action.

“Azure.” Frank cupped his hands and yelled down to her. He chased to the freight elevator while calling her phone. His breath came in spurts. The ride down seemed endless.

Will Azure & Frank's wedding go off without a hitch?
