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Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!!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 and Pax talk. She tells him she's betrothed, and his first question... Do you love him?

I couldn’t help laughing, and it came out slightly hysterical. “Would I have been running into the woods, barefoot in a party dress if I did?”
“Good point.” He raked a hand through his hair, which showed off the tight muscles in his arm. The movement captured my attention. I wanted to feel those arms around me.
Oh crap! I was staring again...
Goddess, help me.
Tune in next week to find out more!
Thanks again for stopping by! Your support and feedback is greatly appreciated!

I can't wait to find out how you get her out of that engagement since she obviously doesn't care for the guy.
ReplyDeletePoor Greta has quite the struggle ahead ;) Thanks for commenting, Elaine! :D
DeleteExcellent snippet! I love the description of his muscles! :)
ReplyDeleteteehee Thanks, Lauren! :D
DeleteShe's not going to be able to resist her attraction for him, we all know this LOL. Excellent excerpt!
ReplyDeleteLOL So true! Thank you, Veronica! :D
DeleteWonder how much traditional unicorn lore is involved. Do they have a thing for virgins, for instance?
ReplyDeleteHi Sue Ann! She actually is a virgin and will give her V card to Pax ;)
DeleteIf she keeps that up she's going to get caught staring... But he sounds tempting, so who could blame her?
ReplyDeleteTrue that! ;D
DeleteIt's been a long time since I read a unicorn romance. Great job broadening the paranormal horizons!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wanted to do something different :D
DeleteYou have to wonder how she's going to break her engagement, since it's obvious she loves Pax. Good excerpt.
ReplyDeleteThat was totally my thought last week, Pax is really not that bright. It's too funny.
ReplyDeleteI hope she wasn't drooling ; ) I could envision the scene nicely...good job!
