Rachel laughed. “That just cost us two cell phones.”
“Cell phones? You’re carrying my child and muttering about phones.”
“We’re going to start muttering about food soon if we don’t get something to eat.”
Jason picked her back up and spun her once. “We. Oh, God I love you. I’m so happy you ran me off the road last winter.”
“I did not run you off the road.”
Jason lifted her into his arms, carried her into the house, and spoke to her stomach. “She totally ran me off the road.”
Rachel held on to his neck and let him carry her through their crazy life.
Acknowledgments
It has been an absolute joy to write this series. If it wasn’t for the short time I worked the graveyard shift at Denny’s when I was eighteen, I would never have thought of the opening scene between Jack and Jessie in Not Quite Dating. Now look where I ended up. It’s nothing short of spectacular.
Here are a few shout-outs to the people who helped make this final chapter in the series complete.
Thank you, Kayce Harding, for jumping on a plane with me to visit New York in the dead of winter. I still dream about that duck we had in that little French restaurant. Love you, Cousin.
For Denise Placencio, my kick-ass female attorney who is a joy to watch in the courtroom, thanks.
A special thanks to Jane Dystel and Miriam Goderich, who encouraged me to use the Manhattan subway after my three-hour Uber drive from hell. I feel so very grown-up now.
Back to Kelli Martin. You’ve been my editor since Jack and Jessie and have taken every step alongside me for five years. Publishing has pulled us into the same world, but our friendship spans the universe. I adore you, even the parts that have to be told what the joke is at times. You are truly the blondest black woman I have ever met, and I wouldn’t change one thing about you. We are sisters from a different mister, and I look forward to the many years of spirited friendship we will share. Thank you for making my work pop, and for always keeping it real.
I love you, my friend.
Catherine
