Settling into the gondola, Dale tentatively stated, "I should tell you how much I spent on your ring." Based on his tone, I slowly turned to face him, not wanting to know how far we would be set back by the mammoth stone I was sporting.

    Aah wedding rings! They can be such a sensitive thing, I mean, what if he picks the wrong one? Or in this case, spends ridiculous amounts of money? Well, you've definitely captured my attention with this one Freda! Thanks for hosting :) I hope you have a great weekend!

    Why, I wonder, would the cost of the ring come up when the couple is on a gondola ride? I hope you are enjoying the book. Happy reading!

    That's one of the many reasons I don't have an engagement ring! The idea of spending enough to set us back made me ill. This looks like a fun read!
