04 Screaming Orgasm (14 page)
“Let me know if you want the number of the lady who made the doughnut cake. I notice Elias is going in for a second,” Stephanie teased.
“You threw that right at me,” Jayne said, feigning annoyance.
“Of course I did. And I’ve threatened Jarod with no honeymoon sex tonight if he doesn’t manage to get the garter in Elias’ hands.”
Sophie blanched. “You wouldn’t really do that, would you?”
“Hell no. I’m not a masochist,” Stephanie said. “But I wanted to ensure he gave it his best effort.”
A waiter walked up with a tray of four cocktails.
“What’s this?” Jordan asked when Stephanie handed a drink to each of them, then took one for herself.
“I want to give a special toast to my bridesmaids.”
They each lifted their glasses.
“Here’s to the Books and Brew babes. I’m not sure how we did it, but somehow we managed to make our business a success while landing the five hottest, set-the-sheets-on-fire guys in Portland.”
Jayne laughed. Stephanie always managed to take a nice gesture and make it twisted.
“Seriously though,” Stephanie added, “I love you girls. Now drink up.”
The End
Writing a book was number one on Mari’s bucket list and on her thirty-fourth birthday, she set out to see that goal achieved. Now her computer is jammed full of stories—novels, novellas, short stories and dead-ends. A
New York Times
and
USA Today
bestseller, as well as winner of the Passionate Plume, Mari finds time for writing by squeezing it into the hours between 3 a.m. and daybreak, when her family is asleep and the house is quiet.
