Forever Winter
own reputation would suffer in the scandal, as well. Even though Deandra accepted the truth that her husband harassed her sisters, she avoided them instead of making amends.
    Susanna rested her hands over her rounded stomach and smiled. At least six months pregnant and due during the Christmas season, she hoped for a daughter this time. Relaxing in the library with several books scattered across an ornate desk and her four-year-old son sleeping on a sofa, she fondly remembered her wedding day.
    Not surprisingly, the reception was a catastrophe. A back door to the kitchen was left open and nearly a dozen squawking chicken and geese, covered in snow and slush, flocked into the dining room with wings flapping. The ensuing chase knocked over tables, chairs, food, presents and wedding guests. Susanna simply fell to the floor and laughed the whole time. Better to laugh than cry. Once the servants finally ushered the birds outside and back into the barn, Camden picked her up, both of them covered in feathers, and laughed. He had kissed her so thoroughly, in front of so many people that she silently thanked the birds for the mess.
    The snow continued all day. She thought it would never cease, and that it would always be forever winter. Spending their wedding night in her bedchamber, they made love for hours. The snow ceased by morning and within three days the ice and snow melted enough for travel. The stranded wedding guests left as soon as possible. With careful preparation of the horses and carriage, the Beckinworths left for their honeymoon. Luckily, not a single mishap occurred in France.
    As Susanna stared out a large window in the library, thunder boomed in the distance. Her little boy immediately woke and rushed to her side. He buried his face in her skirts just as two strong arms wrapped around her heavy stomach. Warmth seeped into her body. She relaxed into Camden’s strong embrace and smiled.
    Life was perfect. She wouldn’t change a single thing.
