“So I agreed to join Bella and show you Coral Bay and the Virgin Islands.” Kelsey swept her hand towards the water. “I chose to open myself to something new and Isabella flew right into my heart,” she said as she smiled into the camera.

“We’re not saying come here and you’ll fall in love,” Kelsey continued, holding her arms out wide. “We are saying, come here and do something for yourself. That’s what I needed and what Isabella helped me see.”

“How many of you are divorced out there?” Isabella paused. “Kelsey showed me how to let all that go for a while. Real life will be waiting for you when you get back home. When you’re on island time, you can let real life go. You’ve heard us speak of that in earlier posts.”

“That’s how this magic works,” Kelsey said. “But then it winds its way into your heart and before you know it, you’ve brought island time into your real life.”

“That’s when the real magic begins.” Isabella grinned.

“You’ll have the time of your lives at Coral Bay?—”

“We certainly have,” Isabella said.

“But what you take with you will last a lifetime,” Kelsey added.

“Okay, I hope you’re still with us. I promise, tomorrow will be worth it,” Isabella said.

“See you on Honeymoon Beach.”

Isabella stopped the video and sat back in her chair. “What do you think?”

Kelsey shrugged. “I thought we were honest. It does feel like there’s magic here, but every time I went back home, I took part of you with me.”

“Let’s post this and let Carmen know,” Isabella said, getting up from her chair. “She can watch the comments tonight. I want to spend the evening loving my girl.”

Kelsey chuckled. “Let’s order a combination plate and eat here.”

“Like we did our first night?”

Kelsey nodded. “After dinner we can dance on the deck and…”

Isabella grinned. “Oh, we’re definitely going to and.”

Kelsey laughed as they went inside. They replayed the video and decided not to edit it. Kelsey sat down in the desk chair, opened her computer, and posted the video while Isabella rested her chin on her shoulder. “There it goes.”

“Did you see my winning smile?” Isabella teased. “It convinced you to begin this little—” Isabella stopped when Kelsey raised her eyebrows. “I mean, big adventure with me.”

Kelsey spun the chair around and put her arms around Isabella’s middle. She picked her up and carried her the two short steps to the bed. They fell down in a heap, both giggling.

“Oh!” Isabella exclaimed when Kelsey raised up and stared into her eyes.

“I could never say no to your winning smile.” Kelsey pressed her lips to Isabella’s in a passionate kiss. Talking earnestly to the camera and reliving those early moments when they met filled Kelsey’s heart with gratitude. The one thing she had done for herself by going on that Christmas trip had brought her to Isabella. This love was like nothing she’d ever felt and was only getting bigger.

Kelsey pulled her lips away and started to raise up. “Oh no you don’t,” Isabella said, pulling her back down into another heated kiss. Isabella’s arms were tightly wrapped around Kelsey’s shoulders as their lips slammed together.

Their breaths came faster and louder as the kiss became white hot. This time when Kelsey pulled away she tore her shirt from her body. They couldn’t get undressed fast enough. When their clothes were strewn across the room Kelsey once again loomed over Isabella. She had never felt this much desire and passion for another person. The love in her heart for Isabella was coursing through her veins.

Kelsey could see the fire in Isabella’s eyes daring her to let go and take her.

“Who do you belong to?” Isabella smirked.

“You,” Kelsey said in a loud whisper.

“Show me,” Isabella said firmly.

Kelsey crashed her lips to Isabella’s. All the uncertainty of their situation, all the challenges they knew they’d face, all the negative comments they were sure would come were kissed away. There was only love. Their passion and desire in this almost frenzied moment was driving them.

Kelsey had to be inside Isabella. As her tongue explored and wrestled with Isabella’s, she ran her hand down and over Isabella’s stomach, into her wetness.
