Time to deal with his friend. Jay shifted to Paskins. “We’ve shared meals. You’ve asked me for favors. Did you even look into it? Maybe do an investigation to see if the Golden Boy and Rajae had a phone conversation on Saturday? Before they tried to end my career. Or don’t you care?”

Acknowledgments
For over a year I’ve had an idea swirling in my head about Reid and Brynne’s wedding. Really, it was one simple picture; Reid waking up in Miss Joan’s living room with a hangover.
That’s all I had. Somehow, with the help of my go-to people, we created a story from that meager start. Thank you to Milton Grasle and Tony Iacullo for helping with the finer details regarding weaponry and the legal system. Those tiny details make or break a plot and I’m so grateful for your help. Any mistakes are my own.
To my partners in crime, Tracey Devlyn and Kelsey Browning, thank you for an amazing journey and the sisterhood. You’re the best.
To our Steele Ridge reader family, thank you for making this series I love so much a part of your lives.
As usual, a big hug goes out to my guys (and Elliot!) for making me smile every day. I love you.
