       Lulu was the only wallflower maid of honour in the history of wedding receptions. But perhaps it was for the best. Lulu wasn’t even sure she was going to be able to stand up for the first dance.

      ‘Lulu.’ Alejandro was beside her, extending his hand.

      She wanted to slap it. She also wanted to grab hold of it like a lifeline. She gripped him. Dug her nails in a little.

      The moment his arm came around her his hand settled at her waist. With his other hand in hers she felt all the fury and hurt and confusion rise up inside her, making it impossible for her to speak.

      Alejandro had none of those problems. ‘I know you’re angry with me, Lulu, but we need to talk in private. ‘

      She suddenly wanted to cry. Very much.

      ‘Anything you have to say to me you can say here.’

      His hand tightened at her waist and Lulu wondered, crazily, if he might pick her up and throw her over his shoulder and haul her out of there. But why would he do that? She wasn’t Gigi. She wasn’t intrinsically loveable. Her limitations meant she wasn’t going to have a normal life.

      ‘The condom broke.’

      For a moment Lulu was too busy swimming in self-pity to pay much attention, and when she did she didn’t have a clue why he was saying this to her. Why had he said ‘condom’ in the middle of the wedding waltz?

      The. Condom. Broke.

      The words broke across her mind’s eye as if they’d been lit up in fireworks across a night sky.

      LUCY ELLIS creates over-the-top couples who spar and canoodle in glamorous places. If it doesn’t read like a cross between a dozen old fairy tales you half know and a 1930s romantic comedy it’s not a Lucy Ellis story. Come and read a rambling exposition on her books at lucy-ellis.com and drop her a line.
