To know me is to know that one of my favorite stories, if not the favorite, is Girl Code. Right behind it is the sequel, Mr. & Mrs. Jones. I knew I’d be writing this sequel the moment I typed “The End” on Girl Code. I just really loved Melodee and Amir—both as individual characters and as a couple. There were so many moments I couldn’t wait to write in Mr. & Mrs. Jones, and this scene in Chapter Eight was at the top of the list.
In Girl Code, one of the major turning points was Melodee’s divorce. It was a deeply painful experience that left her confused. The aftermath—like her ex-husband expecting a baby before the ink on their divorce papers dried—was enough to send anyone into a depressive spiral. But, fate brought her and Amir back together just when she needed an escape the most, distracting her from her new reality as a divorcee. In this sequel, payback comes in the classiest way possible, making this chapter one you won’t forget.
