Today
I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance
Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent and an editor!! 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.
****
Last week... Pax gently swabs away the blood from Greta's injured shoulder and tends to the wound. Then as he looks at her with those blue eyes as dark as the sea, he notices the cut on her lip. She licks her lip and tastes the blood. He leans in closer, watching her. He carefully wipes away the blood, dabbing her lip with ointment and slowly slides his finger along the curve of her lip...

When he did, he didn’t back away. He stayed inches away from me, staring into my eyes with that dark gaze. He reached up to caress my cheek. The night stilled around us, and I could’ve stayed like that forever.
Then he jerked away and the stillness shattered. The absence of his touch left me empty.
Tune in next week for more Greta and Pax!! ;) Thanks again for stopping by! Your
