    Summary

    Father Brian runs into Eddie at a farmer’s market and immediately realizes three things:

    Eddie still has the mustache.
    Eddie somehow acquired another child.
    Eddie and Buck are apparently not together despite being the most married unmarried pair Father Brian has ever witnessed.

    Naturally, he decides divine intervention is necessary.

    Or

    Father Brian takes one look at Buddie, says absolutely not, and meddles accordingly.

    Summary

    Lucy Chen graduates high school at sixteen with acceptance letters from top universities, a future everyone already planned for her, and one secret hidden beneath her bedroom floorboards: she enlisted in the Army instead.
    Running from emotionally suffocating parents and a life that never felt like hers, Lucy trades classrooms for combat boots, where she meets Tim Bradford, a sharp-edged recruit carrying bruises nobody talks about and anger he wears like body armor.
    They survive brutal training, deployment, war, and years of becoming people the world barely recognizes afterward.

    Summary

    “Okay, we need a game plan.” Eddie slaps his palms down on the table harshly, causing Chim to drop his fork again. “You take Maddie, I take Buck, and we figure out a way to make sure neither of them get into any stupid fights.”

    Hen raises an eyebrow. “You’re going to dinner with the Buckleys?”

    Eddie nods. “Of course I am, Buck asked me to.” Well, Buck had suggested it would be easier if Eddie were there and Eddie had all but leapt at the opportunity. “I’m not going to leave him to do this alone.”

    “We’ll be there!” Chimney chimes in.

    Eddie waves a hand dismissively. “You know what I mean.”

    “Do we?” Hen asks incredulously and Eddie shoots her a glare.

    “Look, Buck already cleared it with Maddie. They’re a united front, and you and I need to be one too.”

    Or, five times Buck and Eddie are compared to another couple, and one time they comparison gets... a little too real.

    Summary

    The first time David Kay sets eyes on Evan Buckley, he doesn’t believe the social worker when she says he’s five. The kid’s the size of a four or three-year-old at least. He’s tiny.

    “He was malnourished when he came to us,” she tells him and Annie. “He’s making progress, but you know, recovery and healing are slow.”

    Boy, does he ever. Deacon knows that better than anyone

    “Rome wasn’t built in a day,” He agrees.
