Saturday Sample and Weekend Writing Warriors: Never Trust a Pretty Wolf

Welcome to Saturday Sample and Weekend Writing Warriors. Today we'll continue to share excerpts from Never Trust a Pretty Wolf. On Sunday when you finish here, do go to http://www.wewriwa.blogspot.com for more excerpts from a bunch of great authors.

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.

Excerpt: 
Chapter One

Last Week


“Where are we?”

“We just passed Petersburg going south on I-85.”

Andy stretched as best as he could. “I like Petersburg. Have you ever been there? They have a Civil War battlefield and museum that you might enjoy.”

“This isn’t a pleasure trip.”

No, but it could have been fun anyway. Now, thanks to her sucky attitude it won’t be. “How much longer?”

She sighed as if the innocuous question offended her, but she said, “At least seven hours.”

This week: We're in Andy's POV. He speaks first.
“Do you want me to drive awhile?”

 “I suppose you can. There’s a rest area up ahead. We’ll stop there for a moment.”

 She wheeled into the rest area and jumped out of the Mustang almost before Andy got his seat belt unbuckled. As he watched, she hurried down the sidewalk and disappeared into the ladies’ room.
He stretched and meandered over to the vending machines to get a snack. A chocolate bar and soft drink sounded like just the thing. By the time he got his drink and candy, Ms. Wolf had joined him. 

 “Are you ready?” she demanded.

    I can't believe she's letting him drive.

    It will be fun watching her fall for him. lol

    I agree with Teresa. She lets him drive and the romance begins.

    It will be interesting with him in the driver's seat. I think she'll see another side of him.

    She's so...demanding. I agree with the other commenters, it'll be interesting to see how she reacts to him driving her car. Great snippet!

    The tension is still there. I wonder how this will develop over the coming hours together.

    She's a lady in a hurry. She even pees fast.

    Good grief, she's fast. Sounds like my sister who's out of the car and locks it before I get my seatbelt off. I'm curious how she's going to react to his driving.
