The Color of Heaven
By Julianne MacLean writing as E.V. Mitchell

Life is hard.  It's cruel sometimes.  It's merciless and unfair, but we all go through difficult times, one way or another.  You've had more than your share of knocks lately, I'll give you that, but it doesn't mean you get to quit.  No one gets to quit.  You keep fighting, every day, and sooner or later, the grief fades a little.  You grow stronger, find joy again, and everything gets easier.  You come out of it more equipped to handle the next wave, which will come eventually.  There will always be waves.

For all we know, each day could be our last.  What matters most is the appreciation and gratefulness we should feel for each precious day we have with one another.

Love is our greatest achievement.  Don't ever forget that.  Don't squander it.  Seek it.  Experience it.  Savor it every day that you can, because you never know when a rogue wave might sweep you away.

No one knows we're here.  It's just us.  You and me.  As far as I'm concerned, the rest of the world doesn't even exist, so we can live by our own rules.

He held me tight, then pressed his lips to mine.  I felt like a woman, not a girl anymore.  He was my mate, my partner, my great love, and nothing had ever felt so right and so real.  I had no doubts about anything...
