DNF. This book is my problem after boards

“I scoffed at the absurdity. Last week at family dinner, when Luke and Layla were talking about newlywed life, Liam made a joke about our honeymoon escapades, and I genuinely stared at my butter knife and considered how much pressure it would take to draw blood”

I support you

“Hmm. So you’re worried that you and Liam working together could make things harder on the boys?”
