"Hello," we hear from the side door. 

"Come on in the kitchen, Meagan!" Katie yells.

Meagan puts her bag down on the floor by the door. I see Ashton stop with his sandwich held halfway to his mouth.

"Hi," he stutters. "I'm Ashton Kerrigan,

"I know," she says. "I’ve heard all about you from your mom. Thank you for your service." She extends her hand, and when they shake, I see Meagan pull her hand back quickly. 

"Sorry, didn’t mean to shock you," she wipes her hand on her pants leg,

I can’t help but smile at Katie, who is watching with a gleam in her eyes.

And so it begins. Now just to get Lacey and MJ back on track; I think Katie and I will have to do some meddling. 

Meagan joins Katie behind the counter, and MJ sits by his brother. He gives him a head nod toward Meagan causing Ashton to blush.

Katie wraps her arm around Meagan to ask her if she's bringing a date to the party. I hear a low growl from Ashton, and MJ nearly falls out the chair laughing. Two brothers, one from Katie’s womb, one from her heart and both are equally loved. The Kerrigan family has been blessed in so many ways: wealth, health, talent, and intelligence, but our biggest blessing has always been family.

About the Author & a Note to Readers

I live on the Southwest Coast of Florida with my husband and three daughters. I spend my time reading and shuttling my kids to and from activities. I'm probably a lot like you; maybe you always had a story to tell but you were too shy to admit you’re a writer in your heart. 

In my 30 plus years, I have had a lot of jobs; office worker, cable company employee, nurse. I even went to cosmetology school. While doing all of that, I filled notebooks with stories of these amazing families, or sexy shifters, even a few magical lands. Once I was finished writing, I would throw the notebook away. I never dreamed I would have a book on Amazon. . I even went to cosmetology school. While doing all of that, I filled notebooks with stories of these amazing families, or sexy shifters, even a few magical lands. Once I was finished writing, I would throw the notebook away. I never dreamed I would have a book on Amazon. 

I wrote this book without adding one stitch of punctuation. Truth is, no matter how many classes I have taken, I just don’t comprehend where a comma should go. That stopped me for more than 20 years. I trusted two strangers I met on Facebook, see it’s always easier to share things with strangers behind a screen than family, who might judge. 

This book was just two chapters I sent to those two strangers. They gave their time to a stranger with a dream to write, so my advice to you is, LIFE IS TOO SHORT. Find what you love and do it for as long as you can. Don’t be afraid to ask advice and beg for help. I hope Kate, Jeannie and Jeanne continue my journey with me. 

Thanks so much for letting The Kerrigan’s have a little of your downtime. If you loved them, let me know. If you hated them, that's ok, I didn’t write this book for you, I wrote it for us.
