A sneak peek, shh don’t tell
September 22, 2009 | Filed under: Stuff
VERY rough peek at my next summer’s Blaze. Remember, ROUGH:
Startling her out of her own thoughts, there was new movement outside the pastry shop as the ME was finally ready to have the body removed. Once again, Bella set her head down on her knees, feeling a wave of emotion for whoever the guy had been, for his family, for whoever would grieve him.
A pair of athletic shoes appeared in front of her, topped by faded Levi’s, and she closed her eyes, not up for more unanswerable questions. She heard a rustle and knew the owner of said shoes and jeans had just crouched in front of her.
When she peeked, she saw long legs flexing as he set his elbows on his thighs and waited on her.
He finally spoke. “You okay?”
Wait a minute. She knew that voice. That voice had coaxed shocking responses from her only last night, and she lifted her head, wondering if her mind was playing tricks on her.
Nope, it was Tall, Dark and Drop-dead Sexy, no longer wearing board shorts and a relaxed, easy grin.
Instead he wore a light blue button down that emphasized his lean, hard body, the one that had taken hers to heaven and back.
The man she’d told that she was moving to Siberia so he wouldn’t come looking for her.
Oh, God.
She really wished she’d have picked any other location than Siberia, because he had a detective’s badge on a hip, and he was either carrying a gun on his other hip or was very happy to see her, which she sincerely doubted given the expression on his face.
Gulp.
“Hey,” she whispered with a little smile.
He returned the little smile, his eyes warming, but he didn’t “hey” back.
Yeah.
She’d had it right last night. She was in trouble with this one.
Deep trouble.

Next year is not all that far away!! This reads very well & I know the polished version will shine.
Yesterday I finally got to pick up a copy of Double Play. I am looking forward to reading it. Have to finish my library book first though! Border’s in Santa Rosa had the one copy of Double Play (thank heavens) 3 copies of Instant Gratification, 1 copy of Instant Attraction & 1 copy of Get A Clue. No picture as I don’t have a digital camera! Sorry. I was just so happy to get Double Play.
