NOOK
Set up: Kait sizes up her competition…
***Note: Snippet has been modified to fit the 8 sentence limit.
***************************************************************************************
Kait’s gaze narrowed in on her before sizing her up with a slide down then up again. “A Yank, huh?” That bit of news obviously pleased her for her smile widened, showing her dimples and transforming her frosty expression into one of warmth and welcome. “Ye willnae be with us long then.”
“Only a few weeks.” Michaela’s lips twitched, but she managed not to smile. Kait obviously didn’t think her a threat now and could relax.
Kait threw another dart where it smacked near the dead center.
****************************************************************************************
Kait’s pleased for now… 🙂

Kait has another think or two coming! 😀
Sarah,
You are so right. lol
Love the way the girls handle one another in this snippet!
Jess,
So glad you liked the snippet. Michaela can handle her own.
Ah, another little twist to the story. Kait cracked me up, I can just picture her calculating her competition.
Millie,
So glad the visual came through. 🙂
Somehow I can’t help but think that Alan and Hyatt are as amused by the exchange as I am. LOL
Kait’s a bit territorial when it comes to the laddies. lol
I love how Michaela shows she can handle just about anything. A strong cookie! Loved the story.

Steph
Thanks so much.
Very realistic snippet, if I were Kait I wouldn’t relax just yet!
Gemma,
Kait needs a dram of whiskey. What do you think? lol
Kait’s very interesting, can’t wait for the inevitable fireworks! Great snippet, quite revealing of her character.
Veronica,
Glad you enjoyed the snippet!
Hmmmm…seems to me Kait doesn’t realize just how much of a threat even a Yank can provide her.
She’s in for a surprise. 🙂
Interesting snippet about two strong personalities. Like the others, I’ll watch for fireworks soon.
Charmaine,
I wonder who will win? 🙂
Near dead center, but not on dead center. That leaves room for someone else *cough* Michaela *cough* to do better.
Kate,
lol– Michaela please stand up and take the shot.
Kait sounds more than a little possessive.
Sue,
Doesn’t she though? lol
It seems like Kait might have to worry if Michaela starts a romance with one of the brothers!
Carrie-Anne,
She just might. Kait may have designs on one of the brothers, but … The brothers may just treasure her friendship and naught more.
Interesting bit of tension there:)
Eleri,
Glad you enjoyed the snippet.
I bet Kait shouldn’t have relaxed just yet.
Elaine,
You’re probably right. 🙂
