Chương 229: Chapter 229: A Wedding

After Jessi and Judd returned from the Keys, Jessi shifted into high gear finalizing arrangements for Alex and Trish’s wedding. There were schedules to check, food and liquor to order, and a vast myriad of other details to manage. An inveterate perfectionist, she would have checked and rechecked anyway, but because this wedding was for friends, she felt added pressure to get it right.

Since their night at The Castle, she and Judd had discovered a deeper intimacy, and she found that she spent at least a couple of nights a week at his place. Buddy was always thrilled to visit Judd, spending his time chasing birds on the beach until he wore himself out.

They also completed the final chore on Graham’s list by taking down the battered old ceiling fan over Jessi’s bed, replacing it with an ornate silver chandelier. They’d celebrated by enjoying cocktails at Square Grouper and watching the lighthouse across the inlet. Then they’d gone to Judd’s and made love for hours.
