Status Updates From Yours to Keep

So sensual. But it hits a very hard topic: legal immigrants. Very unlikely in a romance. And the hardship of being an "in-betweener". Like me: born there, grew up here, more American than rest of family. I just don't have the illegal aspect of it.

I dig this already.

“The older your kids got the more they needed u. Not some parent, any parent, but you, specifically. When they were babies, anyone could hold them, feed them, comfort them. But as they got older, went to school, & fell under other influences, only you could finish the job of shaping them. Only u could give them the guidance they needed. Even if they seemed to reject it. Even if they seemed not to be listening.”

ugh, I have this sinking feeling that there are going to be way too many cliches for my liking in this one. I'm almost reading it now to see if the author can actually surprise me, cause it feels awfully predictable.
