Weekend Writing Warriors: It's been attacking you? RUNNING FROM SHADOWS #8Sunday #Unicorns


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Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!!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... Greta runs away from her surprise engagement partthrough the woodsPax saves her from a shadow demon. Oh, and he's a unicorn! 
Back at Pax's cabin, Greta and Pax talk. She tells him one of her secrets. Now it's his turn...

Focusing on the coffee mug in my hands, I tapped the side. “Your turn.”

“I’ve already gone several rounds with the demon who marked you.”

I stopped tapping. Rounds...plural? How long had this thing been after me? Or, maybe it was trying to mark him too. “It’s been attacking you?”


Tune in next week to find out more!

Thanks again for stopping by! Your support and feedback is greatly appreciated!

  11. Protector or common enemy? Either way, it's common ground for her to trust him... Not that it sounds like she has much choice.
