Karlee does her best to make her father's birthday dinner perfect. But her best intentions lead to chaos in the kitchen.

In our first character story (Karlee's Early Morning), we got to know a little bit about Karlee and what her typical morning looks like. In today's story, we're introduced to Joseph. He's a quite a bit different from Karlee but I'll let you read the story below to find out why for yourself.

Hot coffee, a warm fire, and time in the peace and quiet--this is the only way my female lead likes to spend her mornings. Read the excerpt for a deeper look into Karlee's start to the day.
