I had a lot of fun writing conversations between my FMC, Aubrey, her adult daughter Zoe and Zoe's girlfriend Brittney.

The girls live in BC and Aubrey lives in Ontario, so there are a couple facetime conversations in the book and the girls love to give Aubrey a hard time.

“So, do you have a picture of him?” Brittney appeared over her daughter’s shoulder.

“No, I don’t. I’m showing my age I guess because we haven’t taken any selfies.”

Both women laughed and Zoe rolled her eyes. “Come on mom. This isn’t hard. What’s his full name and we’ll find him somewhere.”

“John Mahone, he’s a cameraman for MinouNews.”

Aubrey watched as Brittney typed away on her phone next to Zoe. “Got him!” she crooned a moment later.

“Seriously?” She was amazed. “Have your considered becoming a detective when you grow up?”

Brittney laughed, “No thank you. Talking to people all the time? Yuck, I like my job at the morgue thank you very much. The love of my life here chatters enough for the both of us.”

Zoe grinned and gave Brittney a kiss against her temple. “That’s why we’re so good together. You don’t want to talk much and I like to talk for the both of us.”

Aubrey sipped at her tea and smiled at her girls. Brittney was right, they were perfect for each other. A true opposite attract situation they’d made work.

“Wow, he’s really good looking in a daddy kind of way.” Brittney commented.

“Don’t say that about my future step-father.” Zoe made a face and then tugged at Brittney’s arm so she could see the picture. “Holy shit. Okay mom, promise me you never call him Daddy. We want to.”

Aubrey laughed and tiled her face back, “I promise to never do that. It’s not that kind of vibe.”

“Oh, he calls you Mommy.” She teased, “okay that’s cool. No judgement from us.”

Brittney nodded in agreement with Zoe.

“Shut it!” Aubrey rubbed at her face trying to hide the blush from her cheeks. “It’s not that kind of vibe either. He’s a really nice guy and I like him.”

Zoe’s grin faded slightly, “Jokes aside mom. I’m glad. I really want you to find someone and if this guy works for you then don’t wait around forever. Have some fun in your life. You deserve it.”
