It’s Six Sentence Sunday and I thought I would share a snippet from The Spirit of Love. Highland Press Publishing just released it as a single E-book after being featured in the Second Time Around Anthology. I love the book cover! What do you think of it?
Here’s a blurb if you’re interested:
A tragic accident leaves Brynna and Travis devastated. Instead of turning to each other for comfort, they drift apart. However, they must complete one more assignment—set on an old ship, The Queen Mary, during Yule, one of the most haunted times in the Celtic calendar. It is believed souls of the dead prevail and anam cara—soul friends can visit.
Will Travis and Brynna confront the spirit of love, allowing them a chance to heal and find their way back to each other?
***********************************************************************************
In this scene, Travis and Brynna are at the Queen Mary. This is in Travis’ POV. Now for the six:
She wore her golden-red hair loose and tumbling carelessly down her back,
enticing his fingers to slide through the stands. Blood pounded in his temples as
he absorbed the idea of working with her again. He had loved her so much. Who
was he fooling? He still loved her. It had been so difficult to let her go, and now
she was here, speaking civilly to him—a complete contrast to the last time they’d
spoke.
