Josie momentarily forgot how to breathe when she suggested that Everett stopped sleeping on the couch and he said not until they were married. Of course. That was how things worked in his world.
He had given up so much coming here and done a very good job acclimating overall. As much as she hadn't ever wanted to get married because she had to live with the aftermath of her parents' divorce, she couldn't say no.
Divorce was unheard of in Anaxas. If he wanted to marry her, he truly did intend to stay with her forever.
Josie hadn't thought ANYONE would want to commit to her to that extent. If even her own family didn't want her around, how could anyone else? But it was impossible to doubt his sincerity when he was looking at her like that.
So she gave in to the insanity. This was Las Vegas. Getting married on a whim happened every day here.
