Keep in mind Heart and Soul is a WIP. About the snippet: While on the phone with his father, Maverick is daydreaming thinking about Rowan and how he’d like to know her better. Strictly in a professional way or so he keeps telling himself. 🙂
***
“What’s his name?” his father asked.
“Who?”
“Your manager? Where are you, Maverick? You seem preoccupied.”
“Sorry, j
“You hired a woman?”

About Heart and Soul…
80s rock star, Haley Rose went missing without a trace on October 31 1988 and was eventually presumed dead. Three decades later, a thirty-year old woman, Rowan Beckett recalls things only Haley Rose would know and she can belt out songs in the same fashion as the missing 80s star. However, Rowan couldn’t be the missing rock star since the woman would now be in her fifties. Could Haley Rose have came back reincarnated as Rowan Beckett?

I think his father is going to figure it out anyway.
Jessica,
He will. lol
Does his father think hiring a woman is verboten? If he’s that much of a dinosaur (which is yet to be proven), he might actually approve of hiring a woman his son has the hots for.
Ed,
His father is complex in his reasoning. lol He is managing an all-women band. 🙂 There is more to the snippet.
How out-dated! Women make the best managers.
Aurora,
Of course, they do. 🙂
I really want to hear what tone of voice his father says that! It sounds like it should be incredulous surprise …
Botanist,
Perhaps. There is more to the snippet.
Uh-oh. I think his father is going to give him a bad time anyway!
Christina,
He just might. 🙂
I think his father already knows after hearing he hired a woman! Good snippet–and great image to go with it. 🙂
Teresa,
He probably does. 🙂
Yeah, I bet anything that Dad’s at least going to guess and be correct hahaha
Amy,
I think he knows his son or perhaps he’s thinking of how he’d be distracted. lol
Uh Oh! This isn’t going well. Wonder what Dad’s problem is with having a woman on the job . . . and at how quickly Maverick will defend her!
This (mini) confrontation with his dad reveals a lot about both of them. Dad’s pretty old-fashioned. I hope Maverick steps up for her. Again, that will reveal more about him, too.
Diane,
There is more to the snippet. So stay tune. 🙂
I see his dad just assumed the new manager was a dude. Old-fashioned, I wonder?
Caitlin,
Just a tad but to his credit, he’s managing an all-girl band. 🙂
One does have to wonder why his dad would be surprised. I’m interested to read more and find out.
Interesting snippet … have to go back to catch up a little 🙂
Oh yes, Maverick is preoccupied for sure. His Dad has no idea…enjoyed the snippet, very true to life dialog going on here…but then, I always enjoy the way your prose flows – smooth!
This sounds like a really fun story!
This will sound odd coming from someone involved with erotica writing, but it’s nice to see an image of the hero wearing everyday clothes. I sometimes roll my eyes at the plethora of shirtless hunks with washboard abs so common to the romance genre.
I can’t decide if his father thinks that a woman can’t do the job or if he’s surprised that his son thinks a woman can do it.
