For the last few months I've been sharing excerpts from Turnaround Farm, but today I'm sharing from another book, Never Trust a Pretty Wolf. We'll begin with Chapter One.
Blurb:
Liesel Wolf has a secret, a dangerous secret she’ll go to any lengths to conceal. When she’s paired in a charity game with sexy marshal Andy Bryce, a man with secrets of his own, her carefully constructed world comes crashing down, and Liesel’s on a collision course with her past.
Last week:
“You’ll be playing with the person assigned to me.”
“Tony, I’m supposed to be having a little R and R, not
playing a stupid game,” Andy protested.
“It won’t hurt you to get out a bit,” Tony insisted. “Melton’s
giving a party on the fifth to introduce the teams.” He smiled at Andy. “You’ll be expected to go.”
Piercing shrieks emanated from the kitchen. While Tony hastily set his coffee cup down and ran to find out what his offspring had gotten themselves into, Andy picked up the pamphlet to read about the game.

Excerpt
Uh oh. Who is William--and is that diamond real?? lol
ReplyDeleteNice visual. :-)
Her satisfaction and anticipation come through nicely. I wonder how you're going to get rid of this William character to make way for Sandy.
ReplyDeleteWhoa, that's a BIG necklace all right LOL. Interesting description throughout the snippet!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! What a pendant!!! She's really into her appearance. Great description.

Fascinating the way she's fussed with her clothes etc. I wonder if she has a plan for something else. Well done, my friend.
ReplyDeleteShe's lucky to be gifted with diamond necklaces.
ReplyDeleteGreat visuals! And her character comes through well also. Not sure I like that she's so into her appearance, but maybe there's something else about her we don't know yet. Intriguing, what you've shown us so far in this book.
ReplyDeleteNice introduction. I have a feeling there's a lot more to her than her reflection.
ReplyDeleteShe sounds like a woman on a mission. :-)
