The Good, the Bad, and the Aunties (Aunties, #3)

by Jesse Q. Sutanto

I take a deep breath and force my muscles to relax. I think of happy sheep trundling down a meadow and jumping over a fence—no, that’s stressful. Why would they jump over a fence that’s clearly there to protect them? Nothing good’s on the other side, sheep.

I’m still taken aback by the sheer amount of planning that one has to do every step of the way. Committing a crime is never as easy as the movies make it seem. Obstacles sprout like weeds, and each one requires meticulous planning, otherwise the whole thing falls apart.

“Hey, we’re a family now. And you and your aunts—you’re exactly the kind of family I have always wanted to have. The kind of family that would burn down the world to protect one another. Do you realize what a privilege it is to be included in your family?”
