Six Sentence Sunday: Magic of teh Loch, the Legend Begins #2

sixsundayheaderIt’s Six Sentence Sunday and this is another snippet from Magic of the Loch. The Legend begins #1

 

Blurb:

Michaela Grant travels to Scotland for a holiday, knowing this vacation is her last. A medical condition threatens her life and any chance of a future—until she meets Alan MacLachlin, a man forced to exist between two worlds.

Alan is the legendary Loch Ness Monster. Once every fifty years he returns to human form in search of his soul mate, the one woman who can break his curse. He believes he has found forever with Michaela, but to claim it he must figure out how to save her life.

Michaela and Alan vow to take what time has to offer, but another threat looms. A sinister shape shifter with a vendetta against Alan is making Loch Ness his personal hunting ground. Now he’s threatening Michaela. Alan must discover who the shifter is and stop him before it’s too late.

Update: This is a few paragraphs after last week’s warning of doom. Dougal failed to replace the lid and keep the water spirits contained. Their village is about to be flooded and they must hurry.

Alan is the one speaking.

Now for the six:

***************************************************************************************************

“Spread the word that we must head for higher ground. Help Gordana and her son.”
“On my way.” Hyatt hurried toward their sister’s dwelling, shouting the alarm as he went.
“Take only a few meager belongins,” Alan warned when he spotted some of the women trying
to carry more than they could handle. “There is no’ time.”

If you had only minutes to save your life and the life of love ones, what would you grab to take with you?

  5. I love that he’s the Loch Ness Monster in human form. I haven’t seen very many books with that kind of cryptozoological story.

    I’d save my computer, external disk drive, box of disks, and my old stuffed cat Davy, who’s long been in serious need of a visit to a stuffed animal hospital. He’s Real, like the Velveteen Rabbit, and turned yellow and threadbare from age.

    1. Carrie-Anne,
      I’m glad you’re intrigued.

      I have an old kitty-cat that I just loved as a child. My children think it’s hideous. lol It sits happily on one of my book shelves. 🙂

  6. I’m part of a Goodreads romance reading challenge and I think Magic of the Lock fits the bill for one type of book we’re supposed to read.

    Great six and I love the concept of this story.

  8. Well, when my trailer caught fire and the fireman asked me what to save I said computer and dogs. Wish I could have gotten more photos out. I like the premise of a were-loch Ness Monster.
