Sisterly love
Here’s a little taste of Holland + Aidan describing how Holland and her ride-or-die sister-in-law first got to know each other. I hope it entices you to read the whole prequel!
Aidan’s joyful, controlled-chaos sister-in-law Ximena and I had instant chemistry. The first time we spent together, just the two of us, was shortly after the Christmas we met. Aidan and Ethan were golfing, so Ximena and I planned a get-to-know-you brunch. We sat at that table for hours. Ximena was wearing a pleated floor length skirt and plain white t-shirt topped with a thick tiger-stripe plush coat. I couldn’t stop telling her how cute she looked. She gushed equally over my cozy oversized cable-knit sweater with shorts and tights and ankle boots.
Aidan and Ethan would later coin the term So-Cutes, as in, “Holland is here for her So-Cutes, honey” or “We need to leave early enough for the girls to give their So-Cutes”. Har har. At that brunch we found we shared a love of good wine, clean comedy, and each other.
