Mad Gold (Providence Gold Series Book 2) Read online

  As we stopped just in front of where Madix was waiting with the Pastor (not the one whose wife ran away with my incubator, thankfully), Levi executed the perfect turn, and then backed up so I was standing beside my fiancé.

  And that was how I stayed throughout the entire ceremony, until we said our vows, and when he told Madix that he could now kiss his bride. On those occasions, Mad lifted me off my cushions, and held me close to his chest.

  I loved and cherished every second. Even though I was pretty certain I was in labor and had been for around four hours. I just hadn’t wanted to ruin the day and upset Madix by having the baby when we weren’t married.

  What was I saying, I wanted that piece of paper and that fucking ring. That’s why I didn’t speak up before then.

  But by the time Madix got the go ahead to kiss me, my contractions were roughly three minutes apart, and I had a ton of pressure around my rectal region, like I needed to poop. In a white dress. During my wedding. In front of roughly one hundred people.

  “Madix,” I whispered when his face was close to mine. His beaming smile almost took my breath away, but that was also down to the contraction that had just hit. “I think I’m in labor,” I gasped, trying to rub the pain in my abdomen away. “Either that, or I need to poop. Maybe it’s even both?”

  And then my water broke – in my fucking white wedding dress.

  Madix

  There had been so many moments since I’d met my wife – my freakin’ wife – that I’d called the best moment of my life. I’d memorized them all, because she kept pulling tricks out the bag that outdid the previous best moment. It was like happiness sorcery.

  But today? Now today would be the happiest day of my life, for the rest of my life. I’d married the woman of my dreams and she was now Dahlia Blue which sounded fucking awesome. And she’d given me my son, Shaw Blue. He was a long baby and weighed in at seven pounds and four ounces. A little bundle of perfection to go with the perfection that his mama already brought to my world.

  I was gone for both of them!

  Sitting back and looking over at my wife who was feeding him in her hospital bed, I started to think over all the things I was thankful for.

  I was thankful that life had taken the turn it had for me.

  I was thankful for my family – even the extended members who still drove me crazy.

  I was thankful for Dahlia saying yes to marrying me, and for making it legal today, even though my son was trying to make his way into the world.

  I was thankful that she’d even signed the paperwork making it legal, even though she was screaming about how our child was in her ass hole and she was going to shit out a human being.

  I was thankful for the fact that we’d made it to hospital just in time for Shaw to come out and that I hadn’t had to catch him. It had been a matter of minutes after we’d gotten here that he’d popped out of her, but still.

  I was thankful that he was healthy and had a good set of lungs on him.

  I was thankful for everything!

  Dahlia was my good luck charm, and I was going to spend the rest of my life giving her the luck she’d given me.

  Acknowledgments

  Because the Townsends are based on my own family, I’m going to focus on them.

  Thank you for all of the years of crazy, fun, laughter, insanity, madness, adventures and for the Townsend way of life. The Providence series was only ever meant to be four books, but once I started, I couldn’t stop. I’ve got way too much insanity to weave into stories to not continue doing it.

  Thank you for supporting me, for loving me and James, and for being the best family in the world. xoxo

  About the Author

  I’m a British author who grew up all over the world. My parents were diplomats, so we were posted to all of the corners of the earth and it was a blast. Some wouldn’t seem so awesome if you heard about them, but my parents always made it a fun experience and it molded my brother and I into who we are today.

  I live in Wiltshire in the west country of the UK. At random times of the day, I’ll hear a moo from the fields around me, or get a whiff of that…uhhh…’country air’, and I love it! I might not have grown up in the UK, but I’m a British girl to the bone (regardless of the suspicious whiffs coming in from the fields).

  I’m a single mother with a son who is nearing his teenage phase. Maybe he’s reached it early? Who knows. But he’s awesome and has a personality and sense of humor that I can only attribute to my family. We’re slightly bonkers, we have a wicked sense of humor and we find the positives in every situation. I’m so proud to be his mum and to watch him grow and mature.

  Writing was something that I’d always done. I had a teacher in the third grade who always set us the task of writing a story and making it into a book every weekend. After I left school, I kept this up and wrote as often as I could or just plotted out books. This evolved into me taking the plunge and publishing my first book in 2016 and I’ve been typing ever since.

  I’m proud to be an Indie Author, and I absolutely love writing out my crazy Providence characters and the more complex ones in my other series’. It doesn’t matter if it’s romantic comedy or something with more suspense – so long as it has a HEA I’ll do it!

  I’ve got so many more planned, so the best is yet to come.
