Bio:
Just when I thought it was safe to grow up...I found writing to be a creative outlet. It's my 'me' time after I get done taking care of 4 kids, a husband, a dog and two cats...I go to school and the time I can wile away spinning a story is the best. I grew up when *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys were the biggest. Thing. EVER. I will admit it. I liked NSYNC. My inner Joey fangirl was hidden in the closet. Now it is out and my Joey muse is bigger than life. Saw him on DWTS and that's all it took.  I am 34, born and raised in Arkansas.

When things seem to be falling apart during the holidays, it takes a true friend to pick you back up again.  But sometimes there's more feelings, standing there, right in front of you.  Making it work in the end though, is the ultimate challenge.

For my Secret Santa Hollie.

Oh Court, I love this story. And Justin in the kitchen..sighs. You always pull at the heartstrings with every story you write and this one certainly is like that.

Okay I so LOVED this chapter and want more. And this...
“I’ll tell you what. You can pick out any vegetable you want and I’ll cook it for dinner.The freedom!”

“Wow, an early birthday present!”

“Am I the best mom ever, or what?”

That sounds like me and the 8 year old. LOL He would say that to me.

Author's Response: ha, thanks! I love that Chris and Mac sound like you and your son!

“You have your own tequila?” I don’t know why I’m surprised, “Of course you have your own tequila.”

Mmmmkay I burst out laughing at that line. I love this story so freaking much. I enjoy that it seems real, the struggle and the good little things that happen. I can't wait to see what happens next.

I'm glad Landon likes Justin. Chris will come around, I hope. Wonder how he'll take it if someone disses Dad from the NSYNC days..that could be an interesting fight in the school yard. Great job!!

Author's Response: haha I'm so happy you're loving the story! Thanks so much for reading! I've been hoping it was realistic enough so thanks for saying that!
