Damn that Jack; he really does ruin everything. (90% of the way through a very short 8 page story) and I was thinking: cute, sweet, 4 stars, look at D. coming even further out of his shell, Jack isn't so much of an ass when he's just having fun and not being a moralizing, holier than thou prick...and then BOOM! D's ever so sweet awkward proposal, which Jack by the way brings up and introduces into the conversation because D was talking to his little 6 year old friend, NOT Jack. Then after Jack brings it up, his (in my opinion) totally in character shitty response. I hate that man!

What? I just a sucker for a romance as I was for suspense. So yeah, I love this piece because of the sweet talking from D and Ellen, Portia's daughter. It made me itchy to read D and Jack have kids their own. Though Jane Seville wanna write that?

“I don’t need that from you.”
“What, a proposal?”
“Yeah.” Jack faced him again. “I don’t need it.”
“What if I wanna make it?”
“That’s up to you. But we can’t be more honest than we are already.”
I love these two so much. I love D. He’s so sweet and devoted.

I read this last, even though it was meant to be the first spin-off of Zero at the Bone.
And you know what? It was nice to do it this way because now I have the feeling that they're doing fine instead of worrying about D and his work overseas.
I just love them so much.
And I really liked how D talked got the little girl. And how funny and honest she was.
I just... I wish we could have more of Jack and D. It is too damn short!

I said I would read these when I finished Zero at the Bone and I forgot - so making amends.
Nice to see a softer side of D!

So nice to read more about Jack and D! I can totally empathize! This happened to me too because my SO worked in a different city so no one saw him and they all thought I made him up too. Oh well, we know the truth, lol. And D was adorable with Ellen! ♥ I can't wait to read the other tidbits! :)

“You go with Uncle Jack, right?” she said.
“What you mean, go with?”
Ellen rolled her eyes theatrically. “You know. Like Mommy goes with Daddy. And, uh…like cereal goes with
milk. You know.”
D smirked. “Oh. Yeah, I s’pose I do.”
Awww come on, how can D be so cute. This story was 100 shades of adorable.
