Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84 

So, Mom had the accident on the very same day! I have a wild guess. The day Tarquin flew back home, Mom picked him up, and they got it on at the airport, which led to us being conceived. But for some reason, they didn’t get a good look at each other, so they had no idea they had just hooked up with one another. And that’s where all the misunderstandings started.”
