PERSONAL NOTE:
The only pirate I like is Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow and Captain Morgan, which means I’d appreciate if you’d keep my books to yourself. Pirating shows a clear lack of respect for the author—me. I’d rather not meet you on bad terms, so let’s not do that, let’s not meet that way. Let’s meet at a signing or conference instead, or let’s go have a cup of coffee or a drink—maybe some of that Captain Morgan! Thank you for respecting the time and effort put into each book. I appreciate it very much.

A Rockstar Novella

Dedicated to the Kingston babies

It’s time for the Kingston triplets to be born.

I’ve heard stories of how women have their water break or go into labor in their home. That’s not how it happened with Lucy and our babies. As long as Lucy and the babies are okay, I’ll be okay--even if we are surrounded by the Russo Famiglia.

But nothing has been normal for us from the day we met. So why would it start now?
