    Chapter 1 - Adam

    ๐Ÿ™ My pleasure!
  2. CHAPTER 1 - Adam The letter came on a Wednesday. It had an airmail stamp on it and several others, indicating it had come from the US Navy. It was addressed to the former resident of the house I just moved into a week ago, and what stood out to me was the handwriting - Copperplate style - strong - the pen had been deeply pressed on the envelope - the writing even and clearly readable - belonging to one Commander K.R.J. McIntyre. A return address was supplied in the top left corner. It was h
  3. Someone buys a house and receives a belated letter from the son of the previous owner. He is a Navy Seal, wounded and recuperating, unaware as he sent it that his parent has passed away. An unexpected friendship forms..

    Chapter 14

    Aww, that's the best compliment you could give! Thank you! ๐Ÿ˜˜
  5. CHAPTER 14 --==Mitchellโ€™s POV==-- โ€œWhacha doinโ€™?โ€ Iโ€™d just gotten into bed, it was late Thursday evening, just before midnight. โ€œWhoโ€™s this?โ€ I asked, sniggering. โ€œHowโ€™d you get my number?โ€ โ€œOh ha, ha, ha,โ€ Tom chuckled, and I could imagine him rolling his eyes. He should be at the airport by now. โ€œAbout to board.โ€ He sounded tired. Heโ€™d flown to London on Tuesday in the mid-afternoon, landing at 10am local. From then on, my phone had been on the receiving end of a met
  6. CHAPTER 13 --==Mitchellโ€™s POV==-- I laughed at an anecdote Tom just finished telling while I followed him to Venice. Right after we got into our cars, he called me and weโ€™d been talking since we left my house; we were near his place already, having just gotten off Olympic near Santa Monica, turning into 4th. To be honest, Iโ€™d enjoyed this ride, even when we werenโ€™t in the same car. โ€œGod, Iโ€™ve hated the color pink ever since,โ€ he snickered. โ€œNoted,โ€ I laughed, โ€œitโ€™s not my favorite

    Interlude

    Oi! Did you already read the next chapter? ๐Ÿ˜‚ It's ready, btw. It will be here tomorrow!
  9. New chapter (Interlude) is up! More is coming, I'm writing as we 'speak'. Summer here is proving rainy and rather cold. Perfect for me. And considering the last time I made you people wait...enjoy it while you can and pray to the raingods for more; it'll speed up the process. ๐Ÿ˜‚
  10. INTERLUDE --==Tomโ€™s POV==-- To be with this family, seeing them interact together, quite modern with all the LGBTQIA+ interactions; it was a revelation to me - I was amazed at Richard, Mitchellโ€™s father - he was so open to it all. From the relationship his grandson had with his husband (and I knew he had attended the wedding in France), to his son, being openly gay, even at a time when it wasnโ€™t considered normal. Then his marriage, a decade ago, with my uncle and even to me, again, years a
  11. Oh, it'll end. Problem is that I've picked up an unforeseen guest (my nephew) in my house for an unknown period, who's been there since new year's day. Got kicked out of his home, needed a place to crash. Combined with the fact that my editor has gone awol, and I've not really had the time nor the peace of mind to write. But there is much more to come and much already written. ๐Ÿ˜

    Interlude

    I was kinda joking. See, forget an emoji and everything goes to sh**. ๐Ÿ˜

    Interlude

    I guess I can remove them, and let you just have a one-sided story. Works for me, too...

    Interlude

    ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I know, right? I was in stitches writing it, every time I re-read it, I'm still laughing out loud.

    Oooh, one of life's mysteries. ๐Ÿ™ƒ I wouldn't know where to begin, concerning Apple Books.

    Chapter 12

    I have a new chapter, but the editor is still AWOL. So I'm fiddling with it. Unfortunately, the season is upon us, and I;m swamped with work, little time to write. It'll come. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  21. --==Mitchellโ€™s POV==-- It was about three in the afternoon when we pulled out of the driveway, Kit, Mischa and the kids turned left as we went right, honking to each other and to Dad who was waving at the front door. โ€œHeโ€™s definitely a fan now,โ€ I murmured, sitting back, relaxing. Tom grinned at me, speedily taking turns, not even using the navigator to steer us to my house; in a private moment, we agreed to go to Venice again for the night but I wanted a change of clothes and bri

    Epilogue

    Thank you very much! ๐Ÿ™
  23. --==Mitchellโ€™s POV==-- I woke up alone. Beside me, the bed was cold; it was 7 am. Guessing that his internal clock had woken him, and that Tom had gone for his run, I took my time to wake up, sauntering downstairs to make coffee. There was no coffee. Iโ€™m not a coffee-buff like Taylan had been, but he had turned me on to it to start the day. I must have coffee. I found Tomโ€™s tea; of course, there was plenty of that and there was milk. Milk was good, so I got a glass and drank that
