barely contain my excitement. I hope I did the right thing. I know how badly he wanted this, but with everything going on he’s been far more focused on me and the hotels.
    My eyes focus on Enzo’s face as he opens the box. He lifts the lid to look at the key, but it’s not just any key. He stares at the iconic logo for several minutes before looking up at me, an expression of pure surprise on his face.
    “You didn’t?” he asks.
    “Oh yes I did.”
    “How?”
    “You have very smart people working for you, remember? One of those smart people was willing to help me surprise you. I assume you are happy?”
    “I don’t think that it’s actually sunk into my head yet. I feel like I’m dreaming.”
    I reach over and pinch his arm gently. “Did you feel that?”
    “Yes,” he says, smiling. “Where is it?”
    “Outside of course. Want to go see it? Unless you’d rather stay in bed,” I tease.
    “As tempting as that is, I have to see this for my own eyes.” Enzo practically jumps out of bed and throws on a pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt. I laugh watching him as I put my clothes on. He is rarely at a loss for words and his excitement pours out of him like a child on Christmas morning. This is gonna be good.
    Taking my hand, he drags me down the hallway. He starts to open the garage door, but I shake my head and point to the front door. I made sure it would be out in the sunlight for the best effect. Enzo opens the door and steps out onto the front porch then stops in his tracks, his hand covering his mouth. Turning to look at me, a grin spreads across his face before he walks out to see it up close. I follow closely behind him waiting anxiously for his reaction.
    “Ava,” Enzo says, shaking his head. “I can’t believe you did this.”
    “Are you happy? It’s what you wanted right?”
    “What I wanted? No, more like what I’ve dreamed of since the first time I laid eyes on it. I can’t believe it’s mine and it’s here.”
    “Well, it is both of those things. It’s the first thing that popped into my head and it took a little while to get. I started hunting for it and here it is.”
    “How did you do this without my knowing?”
    “Alex helped me. It was easy actually. I told him what I wanted and he did all the work. Grayson helped too. In fact it was him that drove it here. So, one more time. Are you happy?”
    “Ava Milano,” he says, as wraps his arms around my waist, “I am extremely happy. This is the most amazing gift I’ve ever received in my life.” He swings me around, lifting my feet off the ground.
    “Oh good. I was a little bit afraid of the cost of this thing, but I was told by Franco we could well afford it so here it is. Tell me why you love it so much. Explain it to me.”
    Enzo sets me down and walks closer to the striking car sitting before him. Running his hands over the hood of it, he looks up and smiles at me. “This is the Maserati GranTurismo S Limited Edition. It was created to celebrate Italy’s 150 th birthday and there are only twelve of them in the world. You can only buy it in Italy.” He walks around it, dragging his hand over the smooth finish as he does. “It’s the perfect blend of sports car and elegance. It’s exactly what I wanted. Even the color.”
    “I thought this one was really beautiful so I chose it,” I say, about the about the stunning matte blue finish. “I can’t wait for you to take me for a drive.”
    “Get in. We’ll go now.”
    “We’re not dressed.”
    Looking down at his bare feet, he laughs. “Well I guess shoes would be helpful, no?”
    “Yes. Why don’t we put some proper clothing on then take this baby out for a drive.”
    “Perfetto.”
    Walking back in the house, he wraps his arm around my waist and kisses my cheek. “You were worried about affording it?”
    “It’s the most expensive thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I sort of knew we could afford it, but I wanted reassurance before I did it. Plus I had to
