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Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!!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.
****
(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! Pax is stubborn, so he says he won't shift into his full monoceros form, but he shows her his horn and... Whoa.

“I know you want to touch it, but try to control yourself.” A teasing grin spread across his face. His blue eyes lit up as he watched me. And there was a golden horn in the middle of his forehead. Flawless. Powerful. The perfect weapon.
“Uh…Holy. Crap.”
Tune in next week for more Greta and Pax!! And maybe touching ;)
Thanks again for stopping by! Your support and feedback is greatly appreciated!
