Hey, everyone! I’ve missed you, I’ve missed you all! Hope you’re getting through this strange time in your own special way. I’m hanging with my dad, watching loads of Netflix, including such gems as Tiger King, Conan Without Borders, and Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee. Oh, and I’m making the words and putting them into sentences. So here’s a new snippet from Learning to Love!

Continuing from where we left off…

Somehow, in that short amount of time, he’d managed to evaporate the distance between them. “One of us needs to be in there, you know,” she said, hoping her voice didn’t sound as breathy to him as it did to her.

“Berg’s got it covered for a few.” He took another step toward her. “Listen—”

“Will…” She backed away, hitting her shoulder blade against the corner of the wall and ricocheting like a pinball into the adjacent hallway. Will reached to steady her, but she brushed his hand aside.

He frowned. “Sorry, I didn’t realize it was against the rules to make sure you were okay.”

When he moved to walk away, she grabbed his arm to stop him.

Here’s the blurb:

Rebecca Ledgerwood is a physical education teacher who’s ready to invest some sweat equity into a lasting romance. On a whim, she has her palm read before summer vacation ends, and she’s told she’s an old soul who’ll find happiness with a younger man.

William Whitney leaves an unfulfilling career to pursue teaching and gets placed at Rebecca’s school for his physical education practicum. He’s desperate to make a difference, convinced that the choices he made in the past contributed to his younger sister’s death. Kendal High School is nothing like the prep school he attended as a teenager, but he’s determined to make the most of his time there, especially if it makes Rebecca notice him.

Though they come from vastly different backgrounds, there’s an undeniable chemistry that sparks between the two. They resist, as they must, until his practicum ends, but when he’s offered a teaching position at his former prep school, will he take the easy way out, or fight for what’s right in front of him?

Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to visit the other Weekend Writing Warriors!

Stay safe, stay well, and be kind to one another. I’ll be back again next week, and the week after that, and the week after that, and the week after that…Well, what else have I got to do? 😉 xo
