Howdy, folks! I’m back! I didn’t mean to stay away so long, but I was busy writing Love Unleashed, and guess what? It’s finished!!! Can’t wait to share it in its entirety with all of you. For now, enjoy another snippet!
I’ve completely revamped the first chapter, so let’s start there, shall we? š
Hannah Barker stormed through the double-doored entrance of the town hall, her heels clacking noisily on the stone steps that led from the building. Fuming. She was flaming mad. Her cheeks burned with indignation. She wouldnāt have been surprised to see steam escaping from her ears.
āWho the hell does he think he is?ā she growled. āBarging in there and invalidating months of work because he had to open his big, fat mouth!ā
Shoving the strap of her purse back onto her shoulder, she quickened her pace as she reached the flower-lined walkway that curved toward the parking lot. The red, orange, and yellow daylilies were so cheerful-looking, she couldnāt stand the sight of them.
Sheād done so much work. Filed, debated, and pushed for a vote to bring her proposal to the floor.
***End of WWW post, but hereās a bit more!***
At the first public meeting, no one had said a word, and now this. This! On the night of the official vote. Sheād jumped through every ridiculous hoop the town council had thrown at her, spoken to an architect, other business owners in the community, the chamber of commerce . . . they were all on board with opening a dog park in Kendal.
āHe ruined everything!ā
Hereās the blurb:
Hannah Barker has it all. A booming business, a fabulous group of girlfriends, and a loving and devoted housemateā¦with floppy ears and a wet nose. She doesnāt have time for romance. Or so she says.
Kent Clarkson is a single father on a mission to keep his daughter safe. But when the blonde bombshell heās been butting heads with all summer proposes opening a dog park, Kentāwhoās been once bitten and more than twice shyāgoes on the offensive. Soon, itās all-out war.
The whole town knows the chemistry between Hannah and Kent is off the leash, but can these two set aside their differences long enough to fall in love?
Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to visit the otherĀ Weekend Writing Warriors!
I’ve got my sights set on an October release for this story. It’s been so much fun to write! Stay tuned for more snippets in the coming weeks, and lots of puppy pics, as always. Have a wonderful week, and I’ll see you all next Sunday! xo
Love this intro! Definitely grabs my attention. And congrats on finishing this story!
I can see why she’s so upset. This does give context for the rest of the book you’ve shared with us. Great snippet!
Congrats on finishing this!
Outstanding opening! It teases a lot of questions that should get a reader to turn that page! š
I don’t blame her for being angry, but from the blurb, he has his reasons. Great conflict!
We definitely get the idea that she’s fuming!
My apologies for taking so long to make the rounds.
She is fuming and rightly so it would seem. Great intro.
