Today let's have another excerpt from Flood. I hope you're enjoying them because I sure did enjoy writing that book. First a blurb, then that excerpt that picks up where we left off last week.
Blurb:
Drawn together by their love of animals, Aria De Luca and Caleb Hawkins burn for each other. They never suspected that malignant forces around them were successfully plotting Caleb’s ruin from the moment he entered her life. When the flood of a century strikes Aria’s hometown, an alienated Caleb is all that stands between her and catastrophic loss.
Last Week:
“Not the whole world,” Aria teased. “Just my little corner of it.” She took a sip of cola from the can on her desk. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t give up colas. Probably she’d get fat when she got older. “What do you think, Lila? Do we have room here for an unwanted, difficult dog?”
Lila rolled her eyes. “Sure. When do we pick her up?”

This week:
The next day Aria parked her SUV near the front door
of the Pine City Animal Shelter. She and Lila got out of
the vehicle and stared at the grounds of the place they’d
driven two hours on a beautiful spring day to reach.
“The shelter looks nice,” Lila said.
Aria nodded. “Yeah, that’s what I was thinking.”

Aria nodded. “Yeah, that’s what I was thinking.”
The red brick building was only one story high. From
the parking lot, Aria saw fenced dog runs and a small
enclosure occupied by two goats. The grass had been
freshly cut. All in all, it looked neat and well cared for.
She and Lila made their way to the front door, which was made of institutional-looking gray metal and went inside where a pretty receptionist greeted them with a smile.
