Tabitha glared at the man who sat next to her, a plate heaped with scrambled eggs, bacon, and freshly baked biscuits in front of him.

Even though she knew that worrying accomplished nothing, Sally couldn’t help worrying about her granddaughter. Kate se...
“Hello?” She switched on the light as she picked up the receiver, frowning at the red numbers on the alarm clock. Three a.m. was no time for a call. “Who’s this?” “Kate Vange. Best friend and expectant mother.” Kate’s voice held a note of amusement as well as something els...
