Author Website: http://bcl.skeeter63.org/wcherrelbeck.shtmlWhy this must be read: Starsky thinks he's going to be replaced! Things aren’t the way they seem, though. I love this story because it makes me laugh. It’s warm and funny and—well, you’ll see what I mean.
EXCERPT:
"OK. OK. I'll admit it. He's younger than me. Sure, more agile too. But I bet his body doesn't carry as many scars as mine does," he muttered. Looking up to see the two flop down beside a large picnic basket, his eyes were swamped with misery.
"You think He's gonna laugh at those sorry excuses you use as jokes?" he blustered, then swallowed hard. "You tell him about the secrets and dreams that we exchanged during late night stakeouts yet?"
He felt as if he'd been kicked in the stomach as a blanket of panic closed in around him. Never had he let anyone get as close to him as Hutch had done.
"Where does that leave me, partner? I'm not gonna just sit by and play the third wheel!" His words gathered strength as anger once more took over. Getting out, he slammed the door and stormed over to the pair.
