devious developments press is pleased to announce



"Family Thing" by Grey, a Due South RayK/Fraser '/' novel. Digest-sized,
colour cover and inside art by Cat's Meow Creative Arts. Page counts below.

Summary: Ray's cousin gives him a second chance to have a family.

Excerpt:

Ray shook his head hard, trying to figure out what the hell Roy meant.
"You're not making any sense. Why am I here?"

"Em. I need to find the right home for Em."

Realization sank in. The poor kid had not only lost her mum, but now she was
losing her dad. Fuck. It wasn't right and it wasn't fair, but like a lot of
things, that didn't stop it from happening. Life could be fucking cruel
sometimes. "Sure, sure, I can help with that. Your mum and dad will take
her, right?"

Roy shook his head, his expression even more grim than before. "I don't want
my mom and dad to raise her, Ray. You know what they're like. They're
small-minded and ultra-conservative, nothing like what I want for my
daughter."

"But they're your folks, Roy."

"I know that. Believe me, I know them better than you do and I don't want my
Em raised by people who believe the shit they believe. They'd fuck her up
and make her miserable like they tried to do with me. You know how they were
about Cindy."

Reluctantly, Ray nodded. He remembered all the flak Roy's parents had made
about Roy marrying someone outside his faith. Being hard-core Catholics,
they'd made a huge stink about Roy going to hell for marrying a Protestant.
"Okay, so what about Cindy's parents?"

"They're great people, but they're in their eighties. Cindy was one of those
babies who came right before the biological clock exploded, a change of life
kid. They're just not able to take on the responsibility of a
seven-year-old. Anyway, I know who I want for Em. I just have to convince
him that he's the right guy."

"Him? Him who?"

"You."
