Not Part of the Plan (Blue Moon, #4)

by Lucy Score

“Are you and your father still close?” He thought about it. “Not as close as either of us would like,” he said finally. “Mom was the glue, and without her, our lives carried on in different directions. He remarried a few years ago. A nice woman.”

Emma understood Reva better than the girl could know. She knew the bitter taste of betrayal just as she knew the determination to keep the rest of her family intact. She just hoped the system wouldn’t damage them even more.

Family wasn’t just blood and biology it was a commitment. A hard-headed refusal to accept anything but the best for the ones you chose and the ones you were gifted. He had that here with Emma, whether she liked it or not.
