I grin, wrapping my arms around her. “That was all you, baby. Knowing you were in the stands watching me made all the difference. Told you you’re my good luck charm.”
She chuckles, her eyes bright. “I guess that means you’ll want to keep me around,” she teases.
“Hell yes.” I kiss her until she lets out that soft moan that I can’t get enough of. Around us, the guys whistle.
When we break apart, she gives me a teasing look. “How long exactly? I’m pretty busy these days.”
I pull her against me, savoring the warmth of her body. I kiss her again. “Forever.”
Her mouth curves up in my favorite smile—the one where her eyes sparkle. The one that makes my heart go crazy in my chest.
She cups my face in her hands. “Forever with you, Camden Connors, sounds like the perfect plan.”
Epilogue
One Month Later

“Have you noticed that Madeline keeps giving her drinks to Ryker?” I ask Camden, careful to keep my voice down.
We’re sitting at our table at Sam and Dakota’s reception. It’s being held at Tinsley’s Tea Room, a fancy restaurant in Denver that specializes in serving high tea.
Across from us, Madeline taps Ryker’s massive shoulder, then hands him her glass of champagne. He quirks an eyebrow at her. They look at each other, and she fights a smile before he accepts the glass and takes a sip.
Camden looks at them. A second later, his eyes go wide. He turns to me. “Maybe she’s trying to get pregnant,” he whispers.
I bite back a grin. “That’s what I was thinking.”
“What are you two whispering about?” Ryker asks.
I clear my throat. “Nothing.”
“Yeah. Nothing.”
Ryker rolls his eyes at Camden. “You’re a terrible liar, Connors.”
The servers come around and take our empty dinner plates. I glance around the space just to avoid eye contact with Ryker.
The spacious tea room is decorated to look like a fancy tea room in London. All the chairs are plush and upholstered in cream fabric. The tables are made of rich mahogany wood. There are clusters of white peonies in glass vases on every table. Baby pink striped wallpaper adorns the walls, and there’s a hot pink fluorescent sign on the far wall in cursive that says, “spot of tea?”
“This place is so cool,” I say, trying to change the subject. “It really feels like we’re having high tea in London.”
Ryker looks at me, then cracks a smile. He turns to his wife.
“We should just tell them,” Madeline says.
“Tell us what?” Xander, who’s also sitting at our table, asks. Sophie looks over. A second later, the rest of our table is looking at Madeline and Ryker. Del, Ingrid, Theo, Maya, Bella, Blomdahl, Coach Porter, and Abby are all staring at them too.
Madeline flashes the biggest smile I’ve ever seen from her. “I’m pregnant.”
“Holy shit, really?” Camden says.
“Dude! Congratulations!” Xander hugs them both.
Sophie gets teary-eyed as she hugs Madeline.
Madeline chuckles. “Not too loud, guys. We’re at our friends’ wedding reception. I don’t want to take the focus off of Sam and Dakota.”
