Today I'm sharing from my (unpublished) young adult paranormal romance Running From Shadows, currently being read by a lovely agent!!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 partthrough the woodsPax saves her from a shadow demon. Oh, and he's a unicorn! 
Back at Pax's cabin, Greta and Pax talk. He tells her that the shadow has fed on her and marked her...

Was he trying to annoy me? “Well, yeah.” I held up my wrists. “If someone tried to take my blood, I would definitely know.”

“They don’t feed on witches’ blood.”

“What then?”

“That doesn’t matter. All you need—”

Tune in next week for more!

  5. Lots of cliffhangers here: who wants - or doesn't want - her blood? Why don't they feed on witches blood? Does that mean she's a witch? Who are they?
    Definitely want more!

  8. I think if I was her I"d beg to differ that it certainly does matter! Yikes!

  9. Cliffhanger!

    I'm guessing she's going to interrupt him for dismissing how she's been fed on as something that doesn't matter. Because someone needs to tell him, 'hey, no, that's important info!'

  11. Damn, that unicorn is being so enigmatic. "That doesn't matter" really? Like really? Her life is in danger, he better give her all the information he has.
