Tenley showed Jake she was ready to move on with him by accepting the fantasy suite invitation in St. Lucia on episode seven of "The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love" (Feb. 15, 2010).
At the beginning of their date, Tenley told viewers she was nervous about accepting the fantasy suite invitation because she had only ever spent the night with her ex-husband, but she was trusting what her heart was telling her.

Sharing his passion
Jake appreciated Tenley sharing her passion - dance - with him on her hometown date, so he decided to finally share his passion - flying - with her. He took her on a private helicopter ride over St. Lucia. The pair were speechless looking out at the water, and Tenley loved sharing that moment with Jake.
The helicopter landed in the rain forest, where Jake and Tenley had a picnic and talked more about their future. I love how Tenley approaches her talks about the future with Jake, like asking him how he will pursue her in the real world. Tenley told Jake she can see the pair being really happy together, and Jake looked surprised and excited when she told him that.
After their lunch, Jake and Tenley discovered a black sand beach and had a romantic swim in the ocean. Tenley said in those moments she felt everything was perfect, but she couldn't help but worry about the fantasy suite invitation because she has only ever been with her ex-husband.

A leap of faith
At dinner, Tenley told Jake that she really appreciated him keeping her around even though she had been divorced and she truly has moved on. She also told him she was happy and excited to say she was falling in love with him. Jake decided this would be the perfect time to ask Tenley to dance.
After their dance, and a little more kissing, Jake gave Tenley the fantasy suite invitation. Tenley told Jake she wanted to spend every second possible with him, so she would love to stay in the suite with him.
While viewers watched the couple kissing in the fantasy suite pool, Jake told viewers it was one of the moments that showed him Tenley would be an amazing wife.
