Tuesday Tales Picture Prompt
I'm so happy to be joining my friends at Tuesday Tales this week. We're writing to the holiday picture prompt.
It wasn’t
exactly how she planned it, but it was a New Year’s Eve celebration at the Chambers
B&B. Leslie couldn’t believe it, the party she dreaded planning was a
success. Everyone raised their champagne glasses, ringing in the New Year. After
an hour of dancing and drinking the crowd thinned out, and one by one they went
on their way, just like at Times Square, which magically empties out after the
ball drop. During the evening she was swept away by the excitement, but when it
was over she felt a wave of loneliness knowing Kevin wasn’t there.
She glanced
over at the Christmas tree, the lights flickering almost in rhythm to music
that softly played. What is that? She noticed a well wrapped present beside the
tree, a lovely box with a gold ribbon. It sat next to the fake presents she
displayed under the tree that was just for decoration. Where did it come from?
She walked over to the box and picked it up. There was a gift tag tucked
underneath the bow, she immediately recognized the handwriting, it was from
Kevin. She looked around, she was alone. She carefully pulled off the ribbon
and opened the box. Inside was a note,
You never know when you might need this. She smiled as she pulled out a
small flashlight attached to a rope chain, just like the one Kevin used to get
them out of the woods last week when they stayed too out too long. A blanket of
warmth wrapped around her and settled in her heart as she recalled chiding him for
his collection of flashlights. Her heart beat faster remembering how he held
her hand securely and lead the way with his trusty little flashlight. Damn it,
she didn’t want to but maybe she was falling for him… again.

Happy Anniversary SCP!
I’m very
happy and proud to celebrate Secret Cravings Publishing’s Fourth Anniversary.
In honor of the occasion I will give away a pdf copy of my romantic suspense
novella with SCP, Murder in Paradise. Since 95% of the country is freezing
right now, leave a comment telling us where your special paradise getaway would
be. I’ll randomly pick a winner from the comments by Tuesday, please leave your
email address to be contacted.
Romance
author Claire Jenkins thought the Hawaii Writer’s Conference would be the
perfect break she needed. A chance to hang out with her writing buddies, maybe
take a workshop and explore Hawaii. She didn’t dream she’d walk in on a murder
scene involving Hawaii’s most famous honeymooners, wind up as the guest of the
suspect or pretend to be the girlfriend of her handsomely sexy writing partner,
bestselling thriller author Sam Stewart.
Sam’s got
his hands full trying to keep Claire safe and figure out if their host, the
newlywed architect, Dan Harris, is indeed a murderer. His job just got even
more difficult as he and Claire pose as a couple. Sam has to protect Claire
without smothering her or risk ruining their professional relationship. Will it
be too tempting for the both of them to act on the attraction they share, or
will they give in to their feelings, throw caution to the island breeze and
begin a new chapter in their lives?
