“Yeah, Dad. I think everything is going to be just fine.”
She almost believed it.

After George went to bed, she slowly made her way upstairs and got ready to turn in herself. It wasn’t until she was settled underneath the covers that she finally lost control of her thoughts, allowing all of the memories to come flooding back again.
Ethan, holding her tightly in the dark, stroking her bare shoulders and kissing her softly.
Ethan, waking her up in the middle of the night with his wandering fingers.
Ethan, smiling and laughing as she tickled him playfully.
When she couldn’t take any more, Lily rolled over onto her side and cried herself to sleep.
Amanda Black was born and raised in the Midwest, where she still lives with her husband and spoiled-rotten dogs. She earned a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art before deciding that she actually needed to pay some bills, which is when she took a position as an ophthalmic technician. For the past few years she’s been a closet romance writer in her spare time and would love nothing more than to make it a full-time career. When she’s not writing her next steamy love scene, her interests include reading, sketching, and annihilating her friends and family in movie trivia.
This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental.
