Charity Rising (Charity Series Book 2)
Page 24
Peering down at the beautiful babies we made together, I realized that all was well in our little world—for how long no one knew—but this was all we had—and this was our forever.
He picked up our new bundles of joy and placed them in my lap, helping me awkwardly secure two to my breasts and a pacifier to number 3. I peered down at our sweet boys nursing sleepily and teased, “Oh look at our beautiful puppies.”
“Hey! That’s my name,” he mock pouted.
“Oh—is ‘Lava Hottie’ jealous? Don’t worry, I have plenty of names for you; like Skippy, or Spot, or Sparky, or Fido, or Snoopy, or—”
“Good Grief,” he said, pinching the bridge of his nose.
A Note from the Author
I would like to acknowledge that I realize I could have marketed this one book as two, and would’ve profited more financially having done so, but felt strongly that this was the way Charity Rising was to be presented. Basically, you got two books for the price of one. Sounds like a deal to me(wink). I also acknowledge that, just like Charity Moon, this story is busy, if not more so. But, feeling that this would be the last story starring Levi and Charity, I had a lot to tell, and thus did it on purpose. But don’t worry, some of your favorite characters will find themselves stars of my upcoming stories, including Raven and Eli. I am not done with Windrake Mountain just yet.
Also, I don’t normally switch POV’s briefly like I did, but felt it was important to let the reader in on what Levi was feeling at the time in order to soften the blow, so to speak. I hope this helped and not hurt.
I stressed over this sequel, knowing it needed to live up to the first one and please the fans. I truly hope it did this for you.
Stay tuned for future stories and lots more fun!! Who knows, maybe Charity and Levi’s children will one day grow up and have stories of their own.
