You described the trifecta of changing jobs. The only way to improve the offer would be that the owner of the company, a recent Mr. Olympus winner, also wants you to marry him. Assuming the move doesn't require a transcontinental relocation that would require you to leave friends, family and social commitments behind, the scenario is one that really only has one answer: Yes. When leaving, spin it as if you had applied prior to accepting their offer, that you appreciate the opportunity and that you really believe you would be happy with this company, but the offer is too good to pass up. Fib a little to make them feel good and to make you look like less of an ungrateful, opportunistic ass hole.
