  "Come here." Skye waved him over when he stopped to take a breath.

  "Not again!" Jesse moaned as he moved closer.

  "Hugs on demand for the foreseeable future." Skye reminded him with her arm stretched toward him.

  "Are ya gonna cry this time?" The boy eyed her wearily.

  "I'm trying not too."

  Jesse made an exasperated sound as he moved in for the forced affection. Skye kept it short, then ruffled his hair as he found a spot for himself on the bed.

  Her face softened as she looked at Wade, who trailed in behind Jesse and now stood in the doorway, then to the boy and Dylan. This disease had taken so much from her, but it had also given her so much. Her family. A family she would never have had.

  A man she would never have had.

  Skye reached for Dylan's hand, interlacing her smooth fingers with his rough ones. Sometimes love didn't come with crashing cymbals and bright lights.

  Sometimes it came quietly, in a small gesture or a touch. Something that began deep inside and grew until it breathed with every breath and throbbed with every heartbeat. Only then could one see it for what it was.

  This was the strongest, surest love. One Skye was certain was right and true.

  There had been no dressing up, no dating, just a quiet merge of two lives. A look between the two of them, a step toward each other, a matching of strides and there it was.

  The beginning of them.

  About the Author

  Maira Dawn lives in Ohio with her loving family and big imagination. More often than not, you can find her deep in a world of her creation, typing away so that she can share the story with others.

  Maira first wrote on Wattpad and quickly gathered over 5,000 followers. Sanctuary's Aggression, the first book in her series, rose to #1 in Science Fiction, Pandemic and other categories. That series is now being released on Kindle.

  An avid reader from a very young age, Maira turned writer after raising her children. Her books often mix genre no matter how hard she tries to keep them in line. So you can find science fiction, fantasy, and light romance in her series. Maria writes clean romance with kisses only, and her work is suitable for both adults and young adults.

  Maira hopes that all of you enjoy reading her books as much as she enjoyed writing them.

  Special Thanks

  To all of you, who took the chance on a new author. I appreciate each and every one of you!

  To all my readers at Wattpad for letting me know that this, my first story, was good. Without them, I would have taken this leap into publishing with a much weaker heart.

  To Sarah, whose critiques offered the wisdom and encouragement to continue on. I cannot say thank you enough.

  To my friend, Cheryl, who has read the book multiple times and continues to love it. Her enthusiasm warms my heart.

  To my Mother, who loves everything I’ve written. I continued the story of Skye and Dylan past the first ‘The End’ for her.

  To my daughter, Kelsey, for her support as a Beta Reader and as a unique sounding board when I needed one. When stuck, I could always rely on her to give me inspiration.

  To my daughter, Anjulie, for her special brand of encouragement, not doubting for a moment that if I put my mind to something, I could accomplish it.

  And once again, to my husband, who didn’t bat an eye when out of the blue, I said I was going to write a book. Who, even though he is not a reader of almost anything, listens to my chapters and me when I need to talk something out. He has, in fact, given me many great ideas that made their way into this series.
