\nExcerpt<\/strong>
\n<\/span><\/h4>\n
\nIf you\u2019re reading this, something has happened to me.
\nHopefully, it wasn\u2019t something long and drawn out, but quick and peaceful. Baby, I\u2019m also
\nhoping it didn\u2019t take you, too, although you know I\u2019d find you in heaven if you are here with
\nme.<\/span><\/i>
\nSo, you\u2019ve made it to cleaning out my office, which you\u2019ve
\nbeen asking me to do for years. I never was the neatone. <\/span><\/i>
\nReassure the boys I\u2019m watching over them. I have faith that
\nthe two halves of us will find their way in the world, hopefully as fathers, as fatherhood has
\nbeen one of the greater joys of my life.<\/span><\/i>
\nThe greatest joy has been your love, Mati. I know you gave
\nit to me willingly, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer. We know we\u2019ve covered all four
\nareas. Death does not part us, but I don\u2019t want it to stop you from living. We promised each
\nother, young or old, which ever one of us went first, the other would continue to enjoy the gift
\nof life. It\u2019s an adventure. Ours has certainly hit some bumps, taken curves, and ridden steep
\nhills, but we enjoyed the ride, right? Don\u2019t stop now. You\u2019re the driver, Mati. A new road
\nawaits.<\/span><\/i>
\nI want you to do me a favor. Just consider it before you get
\nmad at me. (Those vows should have included in moments of conflict and peace.) Contact
\nDenton. He was one of our best friends. He loved you asI did, only I\u2019m the luckier man. Despite
\nriches and fame, I won you. I had your ear and your heart and your body. You might need
\nsomeone to talk to, and he could be the ear for you. I have no doubt his heart is still open to
\n<\/span><\/i>yours. As for your body, well, I\u2019d be a selfish man, deserving hell instead of heaven, if I expected<\/em>
\nit to waste on earth without attention. We gave each other permission, in vows outside our<\/em>
\nwedding, babe. I expect you to accept them. For once, don\u2019t argue with me.<\/em>
\nLive life. <\/span><\/i>
\nLove from heaven,<\/span><\/i>
\nChris<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\nworld (Sensations Collection), rock star mayhem (Legendary Rock Star series), MMA chaos (Paradise Stories), rom-com for the over forty (<\/span>The Sex Education of M.E<\/span><\/i>.), and a suspenseful island for redemption (The Island Duet). My alter ego, elda lore, creates magical romance through mythological retellings (Modern Descendants). My life revolves around a deep love of reading about fairy tales, medieval knights, regency debauchery, and strong alpha males. I love a deep belly laugh, a strong hug, and an occasional margarita. My other loves include being mother to four grown children and wife to the one and only.<\/span><\/p>\n
