Between A Book And A Hard Place (2016) - Plot & Excerpts
Boone and Noah were both still on my shit list for setting me up, and because of that I hadn’t spent more than a few minutes with either one of them. I was still debating Noah’s claim that he thought Boone had told me Yvette would be at the meeting. And Boone’s explanation that my presence had been Jett’s only additional stipulation to funding the library’s reopening, other than access to the archives, hadn’t mitigated my anger toward him or the feeling of betrayal. Adding to my discontent, Jake had been preoccupied with Meg’s recent setbacks, so I hadn’t seen much of him, either. Then, to top it all off, Mom had taken to popping into my store several times a day. I was having difficulty adjusting to her presence, and it was even more bizarre to see her and Dad together. When I confronted my father about his relationship with Yvette, he said he believed that if you harbored resentment, happiness had no place to dock. It had been all I could do not to roll my eyes at his hippie-dippie philosophy, but I’d kept my mouth shut and nodded without comment.
