Six Sentence Sunday: Running From Shadows... Such a Tease! #SSS #YAPNR #Wicca #USAToday

Hooray for Six Sentence Sunday! 

Love to have your soul, uh, vote! ;D 
 Witch Way to Turn was nominated for BEST young adult novel of 2012 by Sizzling PR!!! Breena and I need your vote!! Polls close on 20 January! Muah!!

Thank you for stopping by. I'm excited to participate with such a fantastic group of writers!

Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!!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.
 ****
(Read last week's post) Set-up... Pax has just revealed that he's a unicorn AND a member of the Order of the Horn...

 What the hell? No. No way. “They’re real? Seriously?” I’d heard the legends, of course, all witches had, but my mother dismissed them in scathing tones and no one else in the coven would discuss it in anything above a whisper. A brief whisper.

“Seriously.” The deep cadence of his voice pleaded with me to accept this.
 
Will she accept this? Or will she need proof?? Hm... Tune in next week for more Greta and Pax!! ;)

Thanks again for stopping by! Your support and feedback is greatly appreciated! Get a sneak peek for more awesome authors at SSS.

  3. I love it that witches don't believe in and won't talk about unicorns. But I hope Greta does. :) And congratulations on the RFF! Way to go! Fingers crossed!
