Thank you for stopping by. I'm excited to participate with such a fantastic group of writers! Check out other warriors here!
Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!! Squee!!
Follow
Greta Shore (a 17-year-old, black-haired wiccan beauty) and Paxton
"Pax" Craig (an 18-year-old, blond-haired college student
with a dark secret) as they discover the fate of their forbidden love.
****
Set-up (last week)... Greta runs away from her surprise engagement party through the woods. Pax saves her from a shadow demon. Oh, and he's a unicorn!
Back at Pax's cabin, Greta wants to know why he was out in the woods, but Pax being Pax cleverly sidesteps...

The sound of his mug thumping against the tabletop snapped my attention to his eyes, and I hoped he didn’t realize I’d been staring.
“You tell me why you were in the woods tonight, and I’ll tell you how I got the scar.” He winked and threw an arm over the back of his chair.
A simple wink had me practically drooling.
Damn, Greta.
I was one short step away from doodling his name a hundred times in my notebook.
Ridiculous--I didn’t need to fall for this boy. Okay, so he gave me this weird deja-vu feeling…
Tune in next week to find out more!
Thanks again for stopping by! Your support and feedback is greatly appreciated!

Interesting snippet - and a unicorn with a cabin. Can't wait to see his reaction if she tells the truth about what she is there. Nicely done.

DeleteDoodling his name in a notebook. Priceless. Yeah, once when I was young, I did things like that--all the girls did. :-) Nice eight. Karen! :-)
ReplyDeleteWoot! I did it too! Thanks, Teresa! :D
DeleteWonderful characterisation for them both. I'm impressed with how much you could convey in those 8 sentences.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Djedra! :D
DeleteHahaha From drooling over a wink, to worrying about doodling his name in a notebook - she's got it baaaad. They're so cute together. But I am curious about this deja vu thing.
