They fell asleep holding each other. Hunter smiled as he drifted off to thoughts of Cam complaining about the dried mess on the sheets the next morning, and eating Dee’s pecan ring off a red, stoneware plate.

AUTHOR’S NOTE:
My regular readers are probably surprised by the ending. I was.
This also seems to be where we’re leaving the Hunter Dane Investigation books for a while. I’ll be focusing on Cam and the Foundation and characters you met in Psychic Men in Flight coming this spring.
But part of Hunt&Cam4Ever are the books that don’t include investigations like the book that started this all, On His Knees, and Snowed In: Hunter’s Story. I usually refer to Snowed as a “sex fest,” but that makes it sound like porno instead of love story and it’s as love storyish as these guys ever get. It’s also, so far, the highest-rated of the books.
I’m expecting more titles in the series, probably novellas and not investigations.
About Secret: The Hortt Orchard story is based on a true crime. A man did live in the attic of a house after he murdered the homeowner while the widow was still in residence. Most of the elements are very close to the original story. For instance, the real access panels were the exact size of the one in the pantry in Secret. I’ll talk about it more on the blog after the book has been out for a while to avoid spoilers.
The clinical trial Avia got Cam into is also based in reality. (And, BTW, “huntingtin” is spelled correctly where you see it. “Huntington” is the name of the disease.) There’s a lot of exciting progress being made to treat it and I really liked being able to include it in the book.
The note in Penelope Maki’s hand is the same as a note from an actual suicide of a young woman about her age. Denver police never did find out her secret.
I thank you all for reading and being patient and loving my boys as much as I do. I hope I did them justice.
Srsly.

You're My Home on YT
Billy Joel
When you look into my eyes
And you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
It always comes as a surprise
When I feel my withered roots begin to grow
Well I never had a place
That I could call my very own
But that's all right my love
'Cause you're my home
When you touch my weary head
And you tell me everything will be all right
You say use my body for your bed
And my love will keep you warm throughout the night
Well I'll never be a stranger
And I'll never be alone
Wherever we're together
That's my home
Home could be the Pennsylvania turnpike
Indiana's early morning dew
High up in the hills of California
Home is just another word for you
Well I never had a place that I could call my very own
But that's all right my love
'Cause you're my home.
If I travel all my life
And I never get to stop and settle down
Long as I have you by my side
There's a roof above and good walls all around
You're my castle, you're my cabin
And my instant pleasure dome
I need you in my house
'Cause you're my home
You're my home
Songwriters: Billy Joel
Bridge over Troubled Water on YT
Simon & Garfunkel
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes, I'll dry them all (all)
I'm on your side, oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you (ooo)
I'll take your part, oh, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
Oh, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Songwriters: Paul Simon
