Child of Mine (2014)
“Shelly’s face was riddled with piercings, a startling contrast to her bubbly demeanor. Clearly she was thrilled to have landed a job.
The day was already warm and humid as Kelly drove into the rising sun. She was famished, ready for a nice hot meal at Miriam’s, an old-timey café just a mile or so up the road, known for their omelets and waffles. It was a favorite with the locals, and Melody was waiting for her there.
The plan to meet early would accommodate Kelly’s sleep schedule, which... worked fine for Melody, who often hit the gym right after dawn anyway. “Trey said he’d handle breakfast with the kids,” Melody crowed when Kelly called her recently. “He owes me.”

In the parking lot, she glanced into the rearview mirror and tried to rub a little life into her haggard features.MoreLess
