Author’s Note
This is another book I didn’t plan to write. When I began work on Marking Time, I had no idea I’d meet yet another character whose story would need to be told. When I was looking for a name for Clare’s love interest in Marking Time, my friend Julie and I batted around a bunch of options. Travis was one of them (we ended up using that in True North). When we settled on Aidan O’Malley, I decided to give him a big, boisterous Irish family full of the joys, trials and tribulations that go with it. When we met Aidan’s brother Brandon in Marking Time, he was in the process of hitting rock bottom in his struggle with alcohol. His story needed to be told, and thus, Starting Over was born.
