While We Waited (The Reed Brothers #8)
“Tag doesn’t seem to mind my bitchiness, though. He walks solemnly beside me down the sidewalk. I take a deep breath, because for the first time ever, I want to tell someone about my mom.

She squatted down next to me. “What did you say, sweetie?”
“I don’t want to go,” I said again, this time a little louder.MoreLess
