I smiled, proud of how accepting my husband was. “I like that idea.”

“Me too,” Phina said.

“You already know him well enough,” Barret joked, and she shoved him.

I looked at Hale, and my grin widened. Our eccentric, little, dysfunctional family grew by two in only one day. Color me surprised! I had foolishly assumed this was the part of the story that got boring. But, apparently, we Davenports had a whole world of fresh drama to look forward to. And I was here for it…

As I’m sure you will be too.
