Will an unexpected loss tear them apart?
Remy MacAlister has his hands full. Between watching out for his bipolar brother and taking care of his elderly grandpa, he doesn’t have much time for a social life. Besides, who else is going to look after the only family he has left? So, nothing can distract him, not even the beautiful, foul-mouthed woman with the interesting honey-colored eyes that lives downstairs.
“I don’t even know how this review will do this book justice. I loved the book about Ryder and Bailey and this one is no different. This story about Remy and Belle was beautiful. There were so many times I wanted to shake Belle and take her place with Remy. This book had me smiling, yelling and crying. I’m emotionally drained but it was so worth it. You will not be disappointed.” -Angie
“Gramps, you didn’t even say hi to Belle yet,” I called.
The grumbling instantly stopped, and moments later, he poked his head out of the kitchen, his smile wide across his face. “Belle! It’s so nice to see you again!”
He ambled over, quicker than I’d seen him move in years, before pulling Belle into a big hug. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders, her face still a little skeptical but her smile bright. “It’s nice to see you too, Gramps. Thanks for having me back.”
He pulled away and waved a hand in the air. “You’re always welcome here. In fact, if you wanna come next week and leave the wet blanket at home, I wouldn’t blame you.” He jerked his chin in my direction.
I rolled my eyes and walked around the two while Belle giggled. “Yeah, yeah. Then I guess this wet blanket isn’t cooking you one of your favorite meals tonight.”
I strolled into the kitchen, Gramps and Belle hot on my heels. “What favorite meal are we talkin’ about here?”
I set the grocery bags on the counter and started unloading them. “Well, Belle and I picked up all the ingredients for shepherd’s pie, but if I’m not enough fun, I can leave you two to it.”
Gramps turned to Belle. “Do you know how to make shepherd’s pie?”
Her eyes widened as she shook her head. “I can’t even boil an egg.”
“Damn,” he muttered under his breath. “Okay, Rem, you’re welcome to stay.”
I rolled my eyes and started loading the food I’d bought into the fridge. “How magnanimous of you.”
