** Eli **
Eli could feel his heart thrashing violently against his ribcage. No matter how many deep breaths he took, it wouldn't calm down the slightest bit.
The idea for the ring had come to him three weeks ago, back at Sean's salon. While Harper was trying on those lovely evening gowns in the fitting room, the designer had casually mentioned a jeweler he met at a fashion show, who was known for a large collection of high quality work crafted for celebrities and art exhibits. The thought of making an engagement ring for Harper had immediately taken root in Eli's mind at that moment, and he wasn't one to procrastinate once he made his decision.
