I realize now, why I wrote this series and why most of it flowed so easily off my keyboard.  Expressing grief while surrounded by friends and family is the best way to live through it.  This complete series is now dedicated to my MIL, Carolyn.  After your valiant struggle, you can finally rest in peace in a much better place.  We miss you.

 

'Dawn Breaks the Night' was written over a year after 'Mid-Night Hour.'  I got stuck, big time.  For the entire series, I couldn't figure out who lived and who died.  For the earlier parts, it didn't seem to matter to my muse, but for some reason, it did for this one.  I'm still not sure who lived or died, so you get to chose, because I wrote one for each.  Feel free to read both options, but I'll warn you, there is some overlap.  Parts that I think work regardless of who the speaker is/was, whatever.

 

I don't know if you need a hankie warning or not, but I was in tears as I wrote some of this story.  Thanks to Judy who is my sounding board, a shoulder to cry on, and is always there for support.  She's also my beta and hosts my stories, but any mistakes are still mine.  Jim, Blair and the gang aren't mine, but Lynn and her pets are, sort of. (eye roll)  Enjoy.
