One Wish
by Dara Girard

Tony Blake likes to follow orders. The former soldier finds comfort in rules and working for respected businessman, Alex Carlton, gives him that.

Unfortunately, he can't fight his fierce attraction to Alex's fiancée, Gabriella Duvall, a beautiful woman he must escort to events when Alex can't attend.

When Tony accompanies Gabby to a wine and chocolate pairing event at a luxury hotel, his true feelings threaten to come to the surface.

Especially when Gabby asks him a seemingly innocent question that shakes him to the core...

A short story for fans of The Glass Slipper Project curious to see another side of Tony and Gabby's romance.
