Let’s just say this isn’t how I expected my summer to go. Today couldn’t be more perfect. Connor at the grill, Marley in my arms, all our closest friends laughing and eating in our backyard.
That’s right. Our backyard. I’m still not quite over that one yet. It’s a big upgrade, going from renting out a room in someone else’s house to sharing a home with the man you adore. I’m not quite over that part of all this either. How perfectly everything’s worked out with Connor. Some things in life are just fate, I guess.
Our “She’s getting bigger every day, isn’t she?” Scarlett scrunches her nose and coos at Marley, who smiles back at her.
Penelope, Scarlett, Maren, and I are huddled in a circle on the deck, drinking rosé and admiring the men from afar. I’ll be honest, I appreciate my new friend
