✨✨(Third-person POV~ Audrey made her way home, turning onto her final right to the street headed towards her home. She worried about her smallest sister, Mia. Ever since the death of their mom, Mia hasn't been the same. Her constant nightmares and isolation from the rest of the world is far too much burden on a tiny soul.
Their mom had tragically died in a car accident while driving Mia to her afternoon summer-art class. A distracted driver crashed against their car, making Mia's mom's car swerve out of control and crashed onto another car. The distracted driver texting on their phone was left with just a few scrapes, and the third car was badly damaged, but still... The driver was left with scratches and bruises, but luckily, was still alive.
Unfortunately for Mia, she was left with a broken arm and a hairline fracture on one of her tiny ribs at just four years of age, besides the many scratches from broken glass
SophieAs usual, Logan picked me up from the office on time and we headed towards our son's school to pick him up. It's so weird... To think that just months ago I was still living in California, still heartbroken with thoughts of Logan being unfaithful.I never would have thought that Amber's jealousy and my bad decision of running away would separate us for so many years.I love him so much, and I don't think I ever stopped loving him. I wonder at times what would have happened had I not run away. Would we still be together? Would we still be this madly in love, or would we have been fed up with each other? I don't think I can ever stop loving him, or get fed up with him.He's so spontaneous, he makes me laugh so much, and there is not a dull moment in our relationship when he doesn't pay
SophieLexie and I grabbed a taxi and made our way to Logan's penthouse. It was fairly close to the library where we will be signing the books tomorrow. All that is left now is grabbing food for our stay this weekend and waiting for the time being."How about we go out to a club tonight, Soph? Johnny is playing in a club nearby. He'll be thrilled to see us there." she asked excitedly, but to be honest with you, I have never been the big party type.Logan loves partying, and most of my friends do for that matter, but I have always felt like I'm out of place. I feel awkward and frankly... I rather stay indoors reading a good book or watching a good movie."Lex, it sounds awesome and all... But to be honest I,""Ok, ok. I won't push it. Besides, I already told Johnny we we
SophieI rubbed my head with my palm and inhaled a deep sigh as I see Roxanne being escorted out of the library. Everyone stared at her, murmuring and giving her ugly stares of disbelief and disgust. Yet... A part of me felt bad. I'm not quite sure why, but I did. I felt terrible for everything; for going off on her, for the way she felt... For whatever reasons she may have that led her to feel this way.I never wished anything bad on her, especially on her daughter.I truly wished we could have been good friends, and I genuinely thought she was a good person when we met. Never in my wildest thoughts would I have thought things would escalate this far between her and me.Seli gave me a worried-sympathetic look and sighed, "Sophie, I am truly sorry. I don't know what to tell you, other than sorry." She turned on her heels and walked out of that library
Sophie The day went by so fast. I was exhausted, to say the least, and to make matters worse we had been stuck in traffic for over an hour before we got back to our place. But, we finally made it back and we were surprised to see Troy in Logan's penthouse. This was our big surprise, seeing our other best friend, Troy. He was cooking up a storm when we got there, completely pampering us with sandwiches, pasta, dessert, and so much more. "Troy? Oh my God, what are you doing here? Oh, I am so happy to see you." I hugged him tightly, embracing him from how much I had missed him. Since he took over his grandma's company, I rarely get to see him, he seems to always be traveling. I guess Logan knew I was missing my best friend, and they had both gotten together to arrange f
Sophie I have no idea how time flew by, but Logan and I spent almost three hours on the phone talking. We finally said good night and hung up after Nate complaint that he was too sleepy and wanted dad to stay by his side. He's not used to sleeping away from us, so to be in a hotel room away from home is a bit intimidating for him. I went down to the kitchen and finished tidying up and putting away the leftovers. Around two in the morning Troy and Lexie came home, accompanied by Johnny. Ethan had gone home with Gina. I was so happy for him, it looks like things are really getting serious for them. Lexie threw herself at me hugging me and rocking me from side to side. I chuckled, glaring at Johnny and Troy. "Lex, you're drunk? Girl, we have work tomorrow morning, what were you thinking?" I asked, but mainly directing my questions towards the boys
SophieThe rest of my weekend was amazing. Despite Lexie having a hungover, she killed it, making sure our day ran smoothly. We were able to have a great day, meeting so many fans, signing autographs, taking pictures and so on.Mr. Choy was beyond content with the outcome, saying he had never seen so many people come out to see us. The only downside was a phone call from Logan after he found the video of Roxanne going off on me. Luckily, he was able to bring it down so it didn't affect my career. It was still a bit embarrassing, but my biggest concern was calming Logan down.He can be extremely stubborn when he's upset, acting upon his emotions when it comes to personal dilemmas. But ever since he's had Nate in his life, he's been able to control himself more.I can't wait until next weekend to do this a

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION AND HAVE AN AMAZING DAY.✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨SophieI couldn't wait until we got home. I miss my boys so much, I can't stand being away from them for so long. After we dropped off Lexie, Troy stopped by the dinner and got some food to take home to his grandma and Dylan. He then drove me home."Ok, hun. We're here, I guess I'll see you tomorrow,0k? Thanks again for keeping me company this weekend. It made my days a little brighter."I smiled as I got off the car and made my way with him to the trunk to get my luggage. "T, it's me who has to thank you and Lexie. I missed hanging out with my two best friends. Take care and say hi to your grandma for me, will you?" I say, placing my luggage down and giving him a bear hug. "Love
Sophie (days later)The days that followed were amazing. Logan confirmed to me that he wanted to marry me and soon would propose to me adequately. I didn't want to rush it though, since we were both so busy these days.He had a big case coming up and needed to finish a few business proposals that he had going on in his agenda, so he flew out last night to be in Chicago this morning. He'll be out for at least three days.I've been taking Nate to schooland picking him and Kenzie up on my own. Logan is also helping his new friend Gideon after he asked him to look into a case, and he, along with Mr. Thompson are helping Gideon with this so-called case. It shocked me to learn that Roxanne's family may be involved deeply in this case. I guess the apple didn't fall far from the tree. Seems that the reason her parents lost their money was the karmic faults of their shady impulses to betray their business partner.Logan didn't want to
AUTHOR'S NOTE: BOOK THREE WILL BE AVAILABLE IN SEPTEMBER. TITLED 'LOVELY IMPERFECTIONS, ' IT'S A STAND-ALONE BOOK ABOUT NATHAN AND THE GIRL HE FALLS IN LOVE WITH.💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨Sophie(10 years later, June 18th)I stood at my kitchen island, finishing the last touches on my baby's cupcakes. It was his birthday today, finally turning five years old.After my twins were born, we git married, and it didn't go past two years before I was pregnant again with my beautiful baby girl. We decided to name her Ruth Abigail, after Logan's auntie. She was born close to my birthday on the 13th of November. After that, we went by for three more years until I became pregnant with my baby boy, Daniel, or Tarzan, as Logan likes to tease-call him, which by the way, we are naming him after his uncle, Daniel Halloway, who lives in California.I found that until Logan came to Tennessee, his uncle was helping them out because his dad, Charles, had a hard time making ends meet. While his dad attended
Logan"We're here. This is your home, little ones." I say as I hold the baby carriers in front of our home. I placed baby Sam's carrier down slowly and opened the car door for Sophie, holding out my hand for her. She smiles as she reaches out and carefully gets out of the car. She looks so beautiful with her afterglow. Motherhood looks so beautiful on her. I surely must have done something right to deserve this woman. She's a blessing to me, to my boys, to my family, to my life.We made our way inside and were shocked as we were surprised by our family and friends with a big welcome home party for Sophie and my boys. A lot of our townfolk were here as well, welcoming our twins home. There was food everywhere, along with blue balloons, and streamers inside and outside our home. Everywhere I looked, there were people, kids running, smiling, and having a great time. Music played in the back to enlighten the atmosphere. It made me feel so proud of being part if this town."Wow, hey gu
Sophie (May 26th)The months went by flying so fast. Between work, my belly growing and the wedding coming up I was feeling both excited and anxious. I've been getting Braxton hicks all day. I'm only five months along, but my belly looks big compared to how I was with Nathan. He is so impatient, kicking already and moving so much.Oh yes, you heard right, I'm having another boy.We decided to name him Steven Anthony, Tony for short. It just fits him. I mean, yes, Anthony is his second name, but calling him Steven in front of Steven just got confusing, plus, Steven just proposed to Audrey and if they decided to have a baby together shortly, I'm sure they will name him Steven as well.I stood before the mirror, I wore a boho style laced dress with a low back and a deep V-shaped cut in front. I wanted something simple, and the dress that Ashley and I found was perfect, I still had a few months to go, so I'm sur
SophieI was so nervous, and I'm not even the one getting married today. I walked in my heels from one end of the room to the other making sure everything was accordingly. I wanted this day to be perfect for my best friend. Troy deserves the best wedding ever.I wanted to make sure everything was perfect for him. I tried my best to get everything done without having to worry him or Dylan.I checked on the tables, the decoration, the bar, everything. It had to be perfect. My heart was content as I see everything exactly how we had planned. Now the only thing to do was to wait for the wedding to start."Baby, will you slow down. I don't want you to overdue yourself, remember...the baby. You gotta rest, that's what the wedding planner is for. Don't make me call Loretta. Come on, take a breather will you?" Logan says as he pulls me to him. He hugs me, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my lips. Loretta was my doctor.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: We see now down to our last chapters. I just wanted to say thank you guys for this beautiful journey and for being part of it. I hope you have enjoyed my story. Thank you for the wonderful support, and for staying patient as I underwent a period of emotional roller coasters.💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨💞✨SophieWe went home after we celebrated with friends and family. Of course, I'm sure you know what happened... Logan made love to me so passionately. It felt right, like we belonged together, as it should have been from the beginning. That same weekend, we took off to Dubai and we came back a few days after New Year. Let me tell you, Dubai was beautiful, but it rained most nights, so the days were cold. I think next time we go, it will have to be during the summer instead.Troy is getting married in a few weeks, so I have been busy helping him with the last details while he's away in business.Also, Ro
SophieI was anxious. I don't know why, I mean, it's not the first time Logan and I go out on a date. This was a weekly thing we did back in high school. We loved spending time together, but for some reason, I was nervous.He looked stunning, wearing a black suit with a dark blue shirt and matching tie. I decided on a simple black dress that hugged my body perfectly. It was about mid-thigh length, with a low round cut in the front. I wore black stilettos and a long winter coat since it was snowing out already. It was pretty cold out, but I was still warm by the coat and the car heater. It was going to be a while before I became accustomed to the weather here again. The California weather is so unpredictable. It could be December and 90 degrees Fahrenheit out. Yet, it could be May, and be pouring outside. Luckily, this winter was not so harsh here. Sure, it was showing, but it was very light and was not as cold as I remember.W
Sophie (two weeks later)We were getting closer to Christmas. During the weekend, Logan and Nate helped decorate the whole house, and we decorated the Christmas tree with Kenzie's help. The place looked beautiful, every detail was exactly how I imagined it.I woke up feeling like the luckiest girl in the world. Logan stirred in his sleep as I moved his hand away from my waist. I turned, kissing him on his lips getting a smile in return. "I love you, dork," I said kissing him again and going straight to the restroom. I went for a quick shower, brushed my teeth, placed on comfy clothes, and began my day. It was still a bit of a struggle because of my cast, but little by little I began to adjust.I made breakfast for my two favorite men, woke up Nate, and got him ready for his last week of school before we went off to Christmas and New Year's break. By the time I came down to finish breakfast, Logan was sitting down enjoying his breakfast
SophieThe days that followed soon after the accident was not easy for me at all. When I got to go home after five exhaust days, Logan reluctantly made me rest all day for three days straight. I wasn't allowed to get up unless it was for the bathroom or shower. Logan and everyone treated me with so much care and love, but it was so smothering. True, I felt pampered but overwhelmed since I was limited to the things they allowed me to do.Nate and Kenzie were still being bothered by Kaitlyn as the news of her mom being transferred out of the hospital to jail. The thought that she may go to jail for a long time made her scared. I can't imagine how she feels, she is so little and feels abandoned. I hope Steven gets custody of here soon and they can reconcile. She needs a good home.She was already feeling overwhelmed not having her dad in her life. The thought of Roxanne never acknowledging her as her daughter, made her depressed at such a
SophieI woke up feeling lightheaded. Everything spined, and my body ached everywhere. I glanced at the ceiling as it pinned lightly and realized I was not in my room. I tried to sit up, but my head began to throb, and my hand felt like a million stabbing needles as I realized it was in a cast.I grunted as soon as I felt the shooting pain. "Sophie...baby, are you ok?" I hear Logan's voice. I immediately realized he was asleep, in a sitting position on a chair near me. "Logan. What...what am I doing here? Why is my arm in a cast?" I grunted as I bring my hand to my temple.It seems that my head decided to throb harder and spin faster now that I was sitting with Logan's help."Babe, it's ok. You don't have to remember everything now, but, you were in a car accident baby. You were hit pretty hard. As you can see, your left arm was broken, and you need to take it easy when sitting or laying down. You have a hairline frac
