Christmas is a time of joy, hope, and wonder...until the ultimate challenge threatens one of Reunion Gap's favorite couples.
Note to the reader:
As a reader, I often wonder about the before and afterof certain characters. As a writer, I'm able to act on that wondering if I've created those characters. (One of the guilty pleasures of the profession!) Nicki and Jameson Price are two people who made me curious because they're such a perfect couple. Perfect for how long? What would happen when adversity struck? Would they survive? Of course, I had to "test" them.
Couples Like Us is told in two parts: Part One: Before, which was previously Christmas in Reunion Gapand Part Two: Three and a half years later.

That game.
The first one she’d ever been to — Gracelyn Bolton.
And I found her.
