Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!!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 told Greta that he's a unicorn. A unicorn!!! So, of course, Greta is all: sure, yeah, whatever... Prove it! She needs more than talk of ancient legends, and she's about to play the card she knows he'll have to pay attention to.

“If you don’t, I’ll go find that shadow demon.”
He laughed. “Right. Sure you will.”
Who did he think he was? Did he think I wasn’t brave enough? Well, okay, maybe I wasn’t. But he didn’t have to know that. “Watch me.”
She's not bluffing! What will Pax do?? Tune in next week for more Greta and Pax!! ;)
Thanks again for stopping by! Your support and feedback is greatly appreciated!
