Personal Note from the Author
This story is dedicated to my mom and grandmother who gave me a love for the woods and who continue to live on through me.
Hi everyone,
The Girls from the Street series captured my imagination late last year, early this year. The stories, starting with Something About Aimee, were like many of my other stories. They are filled with action, adventure, suspense, romance, and my signature humor. The women are spunky; the guys alpha, but compassionate with a hint of vulnerability that melts my heart.
The stories called to me and I knew I had to write them. But, at the same time they were different because they were contemporary. As I wrote the series, I fell in love with the characters. In Aimee’s story, Yolanda, Aimee’s adoptive mom, captured my heart. As I hiked the trails, I could almost hear Yolanda and Aimee begging me to share their unique story.
This is a story of love between an unlikely mother and the daughter she finds and claims as her own. Yolanda’s love and nurturing helps Aimee become the beautiful, strong young woman that she is. Through Aimee, Yolanda continues to live and thrive. I hope you enjoy their story as much as I do.
Hugs,
Susan

Teaser/Excerpt:
“I’m simply enjoying the warmth,” Yolanda said.
“It’s not warm out.”
“Ah, but for me it is, because the sun left a ray of sunshine that warms and lights even the darkest corners of the world.”
Aimee tilted her head to peer up at the sky with a puzzled expression. Yolanda adjusted the brightly-colored, flower-patterned raincoat that she had picked up for Aimee a few minutes before at the Goodwill store.
“Where is the sunshine?” Aimee asked.
“In here,” Yolanda murmured, pressing her hand over Aimee’s heart.
