Danger Close (The Echo Platoon Series, Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
"Home, sweet home." Maddy sat next to her daughter, scarcely able to tear her gaze off little Melinda's sleeping face. But Sam's proud remark had her looking up at their remodeled rancher, basking in the shade of several towering oak trees. "Oh, look!" Someone had rented a large wooden stork carrying a pink bundle that announced the arrival of Melinda Sofia Sasseville, born on July 7th and weighing in at six pounds, four ounces. "My mother, probably," Sam said, naming the most likely culprit. "But no one's here," Maddy observed, a bit disappointed, as he swept them into the carport and killed the engine. "I thought you said your family would be visiting." "They'll show up sooner or later," he promised on a resigned note. She'd come to expect unpredictability from his large, boisterous family. His mother Sofia and stepfather Raúl had given him three half-brothers, all in their teens. Maddy found them hysterical. She'd rather hoped they would be here now to see the baby. Sam had opened the rear door and unlatched the carrier before she'd even taken off her own seatbelt.
