Hello Readers!
Welcome to Snippet Sunday. This is another snippet from Magic of the Loch. Today’s snippet is a couple of sentences later from last week.
If you missed last weeks snippet, here’s the link: Chapter 4 #1
The Wild Rose Press
Kindle
NOOK
Set up for the scene of Chapter 4 #2: Hyatt takes Michaela to Fiddler’s Luck for lunch. Hyatt and Michaela are playing darts and Hyatt ask how she’s enjoying her visit. Michaela is speaking first.
***Note: Snippet has been modified to fit the 8 sentence limit. There was quite a bit of modifying for this one. lol
**************************************************************************************************
“I needed this vacation.”
Dart in his hand, Hyatt paused and looked at her, but before he could ask her why, a deep rich voice
did the honors.
“Why is that I wonder?”
Michaela’s heart stuttered and started again at the sound of Alan’s voice. Turning in her seat, she
met his gaze and wondered about the man’s uncanny knack of appearing out of nowhere. She cleared her throat and willed her heart to slow. Surely Alan could hear the ‘thu-thump, thu-thump’; it pounded loudly in her ears. “Back home, things had become… Um…unbearable.”
**************************************************************************************************
I bet you knew Alan couldn’t stay away. lol

I’m still rooting for Hyatt… NOW can he drown Alan, please? That was just rude! LOL
PT,
Trust me, you’ll fall in love with Alan. 🙂
Oh yup, I knew it! This was a delightful eight that made me kind of giggle : )
I love the dynamics of this scene and you really have me intrigued by the place where you cut us off – well done! Great snippet for today…
Wow, nice. l can feel the tension between them. And it’s fun that they’re playing darts. The hero and heroine of “Mr. Short, Dark…& Funny” (my sweet contemp. romantic comedy) went bowling on their second date.
Oh, good! i like Hyatt, but I’m Team Alan all the way, and I’m so glad she’s reacting like this to his voice. 😀
Sarah,
So glad you’re Team Alan. 🙂 He does have an amazing voice. 🙂
Oooh, he can’t stay away. I can’t wait to see what happens next!
Sarah,
No he can’t. 🙂
I love the rivalry between the brothers. They both seem like a good choice at this point.
