Frank held his finger to his lips. “Shh! This is Dan and Jenny’s day.”
His mom squealed and bounced Savannah in her arms. “Let me be the first to offer my congratulations.” Then she turned her attention back to the toddler in her arms. “And you can start calling me ‘Grandma.’ ”
Savannah blew her raspberry, earning another delightful laugh from Maureen.
“She is just a doll, Kiana.” Frank’s mom hugged Savannah and started walking toward the rows of chairs set up behind the winery. “I’m going to have so much fun spoiling you.”
Frank winked at her. “See? I come by it naturally.”
“I always knew you were something else, Frank Kelly.”
“And I always knew you were the girl for me.” He covered his hand with his own and placed a kiss on her cheek. “Ready to meet the rest of the family?”
She paused and ran her free hand over her dress one more time, only to have Frank stop her and tilt her chin up to face him.
“I’m right here beside you until the very end,” he said with a soft sincerity that filled her with a warm glow.
The last of her fears vanished, and she smiled up at the one man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. “Same here, Romeo.”

Author Bio
Growing up in small town Alabama, Crista relied on story-telling as a natural way for her to pass the time and keep her two younger sisters entertained.
She currently lives in the Audi-filled suburbs of Seattle with her husband and two children, maintaining her alter ego of mild-mannered physician by day while she continues to pursue writing on nights and weekends.
Just for laughs, here are some of the jobs she’s had in the past to pay the bills: barista, bartender, sommelier, stagehand, actress, morgue attendant, and autopsy assistant.
And she’s also a recovering LARPer. (She blames it on her crazy college days)
