You don’t have to tell me, but does Luke have anything to do with this? No. No, of course not. You sure about that? She turned away from her uncle. I’ve been thinking about things and… She turned back...
You don’t look as tough as that. I don’t know how tough I am—look at me, sick as a pup. But I bet I can match you for stubborn. A sound came out of him. Holy shit, Ian—was that a laugh? A cough, he li...
You don’t need approval and you don’t need an excuse or explanation for living your own life. Remember that. Oh,
You know, there’s this little rule about opinions. They’re only good when someone actually asks you for them. He
You making that move, Walt? He kissed her in a way that should have sufficiently answered the question. Muriel, I’m sixty-two years old. I didn’t see this coming. Aren’t you afraid of us becoming an i...
You were right, you know—coming here was completely crazy. It was irrational. To think I’d choose to go to a town where there’s no mall, much less a day spa, and one restaurant that doesn’t have a men...
You’re going to want to meet Paul’s father-in-law, Walt, Jack said. He’s retired army. Yeah? Luke asked. I think Shelby mentioned that. Three-star. Nice guy. Luke groaned in spite of himself. He actua...
You know no one wanted to see the old boy go. I bet where ever he is, the fishing's good Given his surely behavior, the fish might be fried where he is,
After Mel and Jack return, if you’re not in a hurry to get back to Sacramento, how about if we take a day and go over to the coast. I don’t know if we’ll catch the whales, but there’s a lot of stuff o...
After all, Jack had gone into war five times and the only really bad injury he’d sustained was a pretty miserable shot in the ass. Not everyone who went to war came out crippled.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. —Anatole France
And then Jack noticed another thing. A lot had been happening around here, he guessed. While Mel went out the door with David, Brie took a slight detour, finding Mike, who was in a conversation with P...
Aw, Noah. That’s nice. I’ve been trying to tell you, I am nice. She dried her hands on a towel. Yeah. Watch out for Gloria, toots. I think she’s looking for more than nice. *
Aw, man, Preacher groaned. He walked over to Paige and swept her up in his arms to carry her to Doc’s. Ah, Preach, don’t do that, Jack said. The minute she gets to Doc’s, I bet Mel is going to have he...
But I guess we don’t have much in common there, huh? There was no competition, except maybe Joe was competing with a rotten memory. If there was anything about him you thought was worth a damn, you ne...
But he stood there, his eyes riveted on that tattoo. She looked over her shoulder again. It’s called a tramp stamp, she said. I got it when I was fifteen, to be cool. I know what it’s called. I just c...

Can I foster her until my wife and I have had a chance to make a final decision? The lawyer shrugged. I don’t see why not. Terri had you in mind anyway. Paul held little Hannah close. Vanessa is going...
Crazy thoughts began filling his head, chief among them was that he couldn’t imagine there ever being another man in her life, in her body. He’d never had such possessive, proprietary feelings. He was...
