CHAPTER ONE
âMARRY ME.â
Kyra Pappasâs breath caught in her throat. She hovered in the doorway of the Governorâs suite of the Blue Tide Resort, the housekeeping pass card still clutched in one hand and a pink feather duster in the other. Had she heard correctly? Did someone just utter a marriage proposal?
Talk about bad timing on her part. Still, being a romantic at heart, she couldnât resist trying to catch a quick glimpse of the happy couple before making a hasty exit. Her gaze scanned the room until she stumbled across the most gorgeous man wearing a gray tailored suit, sans the tie.
Wait. She recognized him. Yesterday, heâd returned to this suite just as sheâd finished freshening everything. Theyâd chatted briefly about her being American. Heâd inquired whether she enjoyed working at the resort. As their conversation had progressed, heâd mentioned some local sites she should visit while in Greece. Heâd certainly seemed nice enough.
But right now, he was staring directly at her. Why would he be looking at her when he was in the middle of a marriage proposal? Kyra glanced around. They were alone. And the television was turned off. How could that be?
And then a thought struck her. Surely he wasnât posing the question to her. The breath caught in her throat. No. Impossible.
Her puzzled gaze studied the man with the tanned face. She could stare at him for hours. His dark wavy hair made her long to run her fingers through it, while his startling azure-blue eyes seemed to see all. He kept staring at her as though he expected her to respond. Perhaps she hadnât heard him correctly.
âIâm sorry. What did you say?â
His dark brows drew together as his forehead wrinkled. âI...asked if youâd marry me.â
He really had proposed. This stranger wanted to marry her? To say she was caught off guard was akin to saying the Hope diamond was just another trinket.
For just the briefest moment, she imagined what itâd be like if he was serious. Until now, no one had spoken those words to her. On those occasional Saturday nights when she was home alone, she wondered if sheâd ever fall in love. But she wasnât desperate enough to fall for the charming words of a strangerâhowever sexy he may be.
Besides, the last thing she wanted was to be tied downânot now when sheâd just embarked on an adventure to find her extended family. She had other priorities and love wasnât one of them. It wasnât even on her lengthy to-do list.
She studied the serious expression on the manâs face. He certainly didnât seem to be making light of his proposal. So then why had he proposed marriage to a total stranger? Was he delusional? Or had he made some sort of ridiculous wager with his buddies?
âAre you feeling all right, sir?â Her gaze panned the room again, this time a bit more slowly, looking for an open liquor bottle or a hidden camera. Anything to explain his odd behavior.
âI...Iâm not exactly handling this well.â He rubbed a hand over his clean-shaven jaw. âI must admit that Iâve never proposed to anyone before.â
âIs this some sort of bet? A joke?â
His face turned gravely serious. âCertainly not. This is a serious business proposition. One that could benefit you handsomely.â
