“Of course. It’s on the house.” With his arms around her waist, she leaned back and looked up at him. “Is there anything in particular you’d like me to say?”
“Oh, yes. You can write about the success of my first published book—and explain that there’ll be a retraction in the next edition.” He winked. “Or, if you prefer, you could call it a compromise.”
K.O. smiled.
“And then I want you to tell my family and friends that I’m working on a new book that’ll be calledThe Happy Child, and it’ll be about creating appropriate boundaries within the Free Child system of parenting.”
K.O. rewarded him with a lengthy kiss that left her knees weak. Fortunately, he had a firm hold on her, and she on him.
“You can also mention the fact that there’s going to be a wedding in the family.”
“Two weddings,” Max inserted as he handed LaVonne a champagne glass.
“Two?” LaVonne echoed shyly.
Max nodded, filling three more glasses. “Wynn and K.O.’s isn’t the only romance that started out rocky. The way I figure it, if I can win Tom over, his mistress shouldn’t be far behind.”
“Oh, Max!”
“Is there anything else you’d like me to say in your Christmas letter?” K.O. asked Wynn.
“Oh, yes, there’s plenty more, but I think we’ll leave it forthe next Christmas letter and then the one after that.” He brought K.O. close once more and hugged her tight.
She loved being in his arms—and in his life. Next year’s Christmas letter would be from both of them. It would be all about how happy they were... and every word would be true.
