Kaitlin tightened her grip on the broom.
“Have you changed your mind? Do you want to back out?”
“No, I’m not backing out. I’m fixing up the place. I’m keeping my end of the bargain.”
“Can’t you at least be pleasant in the process?”
Tripp rolled his eyes. “It’s not enough for you that I’m doing it? I have to like it, too?”
Kaitlin swung the broom at him, swatting him squarely on the chest. “Yes! Yes, you have to like it!”
Tripp fell back a step, stunned.
She advanced on him, clenching the broom in her fist. “Yes, you have to like it, Tripp Callihan! This is my life you’re a part of now, and I won’t have you griping, moaning and complaining about everything. Life’s hard enough without your own partner dragging you down! Do you understand me?”

JUDITH STACY
began writing as a personal challenge and found it a perfect outlet for all those thoughts and ideas bouncing around in her head. She chose romance because of the emotional involvement with the characters, and historicals for her love of bygone days.
Judith has been married to her high school sweetheart for over two decades and has two daughters. When not writing, she haunts museums, historical homes and antique stores, gathering ideas for new adventures set in the past.
To Judy and Stacy, who keep me grounded To David, who gives me wings
