Genre:
Contemporary erotic romance
Book Blurb:
As one of a set of triplets, Jonah Goodman has always stood out as the least academic—and the last one to take the world, or commitment, seriously. Thing is, that’s not really who he is. But who can he convince of that? Not his family, who see him as they always have. And maybe not his one love, the sweetheart he left behind in high school but with whom he is now sharing an erotic holiday. Will he get his second chance to prove to Kelly that he is a loving man who wants more than a sensual few days, but a real relationship with the woman he lost once and doesn’t want to lose again? With that chance and Kelly's love, Jonah knows that a "good man" can become a better man.
Excerpt:
Jonah pulled in the driveway behind Daniel's old Volvo. Man, that thing had seen better days, but Daniel seemed to love it. At least with Daniel living close, Jonah could help keep the thing in tune and running.
"Speak of the devil," Jonah said, as Daniel exited the house with his son, Timmy.
"Jonah!" Timmy screamed his name and came running for him. Jonah scooped the boy into his arms, laughing.
"What has you so excited, huh?"
The boy’s dark eyes sparkled and his mouth held a wide smile. "My dad got the job you told him about and the school is really cool and we're going up next week to look for a new house for all of us and I might even get a dog."
"A dog? Wow! No wonder you're so excited."
"I know. And right now, we're going to get ice cream for dessert because gramma is making supper and she said she wanted some ice cream. What kind do you like, Jonah?"
"Vanilla for me."
Timmy scrunched his face into a scowl. Vanilla?"
"Well, with lots of chocolate sauce on it."
The boy smiled again. "That's okay, then." Then he twisted to throw a disparaging look at Ginger. "Except Dad says your heap is in the way. What's a heap? I thought you drove a car."
Jonah looked to Daniel who stood laughing softly at Tim's rant. He raised his brows and said meaningfully, "I don't drive a car, Tim. I drive a classic, original 1965 GTO. It's very special. Her name is Ginger. Wanna go for ice cream in Ginger?"
Tim twisted toward Daniel so fast, Jonah almost dropped him. "Can we Dad? Can we take Ginger?"
With a wry smile, Daniel took Tim from Jonah. "Not this time. We have your car seat in our car. But later we can go out if your Uncle Jonah says it's okay."
If possible, Tim's eyes grew even larger. "You're my uncle? I've never had an uncle before."
"Now you have two of them. Me and Mark. Remember Mark from the wedding?"
"Is that the man who kept talking about math and stuff?" Tim asked Daniel.
"That’s him." Daniel held out his hand to shake and Jonah took it firmly. "What brings you home this weekend?"
"Wanted to see Mom and Dad now that all the hoopla is over. Zeb said to tell you hi and that he'll be up with me for Christmas to meet everybody."
"It'll be good to see him."
"So I guess congratulations are due for the new job? When do you start? I thought you had to finish the year up in New Hampshire."
Timmy squirmed to get down, so Daniel set him on his feet. "Don't go near the street."
"Okay, Dad," Tim shouted as he took off across the front yard, arms spread wide like an airplane.
"It seems that while we were here over Thanksgiving, the headmaster filled my spot. They don't acknowledge that Eve and I created a scandal, and they aren't accusing us of creating a scandal—"
"But they want any possible scandal gone far, far away."
"You got it." Daniel shrugged. "Once I spoke with the president of the school down here, I was ready to make the move. We went down to Asheville to meet her and look over the campus the day after we got back, and they offered me the job later that afternoon. We're ready to start our new lives. I have enough money to tide us over, and it’s only a few weeks before I start in Asheville, in the new year."
"Asheville is a good place to live. I'm glad things are working out for you."
"Eve and I will be going after the weekend to find a temporary place to live while we look for a house, and to get Tim enrolled in school. Then we'll be there, getting used to the town and getting a feel for the school."
"You'll do great, Daniel. They're lucky to have you."
"Thanks." Daniel stole a glance over Jonah's left shoulder. "Looks like you might be lucky, too."
Jonah turned to see what Daniel was talking about, just in time to see Kelly's RAV4 turn the corner. His heart rate skipped with that little bit of contact. Damn it. She didn’t even see him. Didn't wave or honk the horn. And still his heart knew her. And wanted her.
Just like other parts of his anatomy.
"Don’t you have to move this heap that's blocking my classic? If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say she was coming from her home and going towards The Emerald. It is lunch time."
"She might not be going to the diner."
"Right. She might not be. But don't you have to move that heap anyway? Check it out, dude. Jeez, do I have to tell you everything?" He turned. "Come on, Son. Let's go get some boring old vanilla ice cream."
Tim came flying across the yard. "Can I have chocolate, Dad?" he shouted.
"You can have anything you want," Daniel said, and gave Tim a big kiss as he lifted him into the air.
Tim wiped it off and scrunched his face again. "Boys don't kiss, Dad."
"Oh, yes they do." And he smothered Tim in kisses until the boy shrieked with giggles.
Jonah had to turn away. He loved that Daniel had found such happiness but seeing him like this filled Jonah with a feeling he'd never known before. Jealousy. And he didn't like it.
"Okay, see you guys soon," he called over his shoulder.
"Good hunting," Daniel called back."
"Is Uncle Jonah going to hunt something? Is it a bear?"
He didn't hear Daniel's reply. Instead his mind zeroed in on one goal. Finding Kelly Shepherd.

November is a time to be thankful. What are you most thankful for this year?
After the past two years, I am so grateful to still be here and with nearly all my family. My mom died early in 2021, but I am grateful that I had her with me all these years, the best mom ever. Despite all the trouble in the world and here at home, I’m grateful for living in this great country and for the peace and love surrounding me.
That sounds so serious and maybe a little cheesy, but it’s true. And no, I am not applying to be Miss America, lol!

After a while, Dee split her personality into thirds. She writes as Anne Krist for sweeter romances, and Jenna Stewart for ménage and shifter stories. All three of her personas are found on the Nomad Authors website (www.nomadauthors.com). Fortunately, Dee’s high school sweetheart is the love of her life and husband to all three ladies!
