The Comeback (2010)
“Brady Matheson ordered his sons, who were sprawled around his living room on the Wednesday evening between the Pennsylvania and Watkins Glen races. “It’s a sensitive issue for Amber.” But all he got for his trouble was three pairs of rolled eyes. His daughters-in-law were more polite and nodded obediently.
“She’s your stepsister,” he reminded them all unnecessarily. And she’s my stepdaughter. “She’s part of our family.” He added hastily, “That doesn’t mean you can go arguing with her or insulti...ng her or getting her dander up like you do with each other.”
Dammit, he hadn’t been this nervous in years. Yet again, he wondered if it was a wise idea having the boys here while he met Amber Blake, Julie-Anne’s daughter, for the first time.
Julie-Anne was desperate for the meeting to go well, which put Brady on edge. She’d insisted Amber would feel less threatened if she was in a big group, rather than one-on-one.
Threatened. Brady cursed under his breath. He wanted to like his stepdaughter, he really did.MoreLess
