The Story of Me (47 page)
Authors: Lesley Jones
I let out a long, satisfied breath as I sway, with my wife in my arms, to the music. It’s taken us a long time to get here. We have lived the lives of a dozen people, overcome heartache and tragedy of the very worst kind, but somehow, we managed to find our way back to each other. If there were ever two people who’d been put on this earth and were meant to be together, then it was us, and I will never, not for a second, stop appreciating the fact our story could’ve been so very different.
We have both been given a second chance and I intend spending every moment of every day, loving the fuck out of my amazing wife and the beautiful babies we’ve been blessed with. Despite Kitten being a bit of a princess sometimes, well, a lot of the fucking time if I’m honest, but yeah, anyway, I love the fucking bones of the girl. I let her get away with shit, what of it? Despite all of that, her life has been as far removed from a fairy tale as you could possibly get, but now, finally today, I have made her not only my wife, Mrs King, but my queen and I plan on giving her the happily ever after she deserves.

Lesley was born and raised in a small working class town in Essex, just outside of East London. She’s married with three sons and in 2006 they all moved to the other side of the world, settling on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, about fifty kilometres outside of Melbourne, Australia.
Lesley is currently ‘a stay at home mum’, but in the past, she has worked at ‘good old Mark & Spencer’ for thirteen years and as a teacher’s assistant.
As well as writing, Lesley loves to read and has been known to get through four or five books a week, when she’s not writing that is. Her other interests are watching her boys play football… the round ball version. She’s happy to admit to being an addict of social media and owes a lot to her Facebook and Twitter family in promoting her book. Lesley is also rather partial to a glass or bottle of wine, a nicely chilled Marlborough Sav Blanc being her favourite.
Being a born and raised Essex girl, she will happily admit to be being a big fan of spray tans, Shellac and is regularly, waxed, tinted and sculpted, although she doesn’t own a pair of white stilettos.
