ⓘ About Leesa Cross-Smith

Whiskey & Ribbons tells the story of police that dies unexpectedly, and the effect that this death has on his family. Evi is nine months pregnant and anticipating the arrival of her precious baby when her husband Eamon dies in the line of duty. Understandably, Evi suffers the most when this tragedy strikes. The young woman confronts a life where she will have to parent her child alone. Fortunately, Eamon’s family takes good care of Evi, and she goes ahead to give birth to a son. The story starts with a snowed-in weekend, where Evi and her best Dalton are stuck in the house. There is no hiding the feelings that these two have had for each other for the longest time. Dalton has been quite a gentleman, helping Evi get over the death of his brother.
