When Mary Rose married Gabe, she never expected to share him.

This is the Friday 56 portion of the post...
This fun meme was originally hosted at Storytime with Tonya.
Want to play? Here are the rules...
Rules:
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of this blog.
* Post a link along with your post back to this blog.
* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
