I’d spend the rest of my life proving it. Starting today. “I love you.” Surprise flashed across her face. “You—you do?” “I want to marry you.” Her mouth fell open. “I want to share this life with you, Piper. Raise these boys. Live on this mountain together.” And that would be a hell of a lot easier if we were married. As soon as she agreed, we’d go pick out a ring. We had some work to do and some trust to build, but we’d get there in time.
