You pulled me right in. I’m hooked.

Ooh! Choices! I hope the context around this snippet gives some idea of the stakes here. Bigger man…good guy…is there a bad guy lurking somewhere?

Thirteen years is a long time to hold on. Better follow through this time. Great snippet!
Debbie
Oh yes; he definitely needs to go see her! 🙂
Veronica Scott
He’s in quite a dilemma, can’t wait to read more. Somehow i’m sure he isn’t going to just drive back to Toronto! Great excerpt…
AJ Bradley

Kate Warren
You’ve got me wondering about their history. Well done.
Sandra Bunino
Mmm, he still has it bad. Fantastic description, Karla. Love it!
