Continuing with an excerpt from my book Fiendish and I'm picking up again with that. The excerpt picks up in the middle of chapter 3 and I will continue til the end of the chapter. Last week we finally got to hear from Calida. They are done with dinner and now he's preparing to take her home.
If you are just joining me, click the link below to be taken to the beginning of this excerpt.
Figuring I might as
well enjoy the remaining time with him, I told him my address. His smile
broadened when he got the information he was after, and I prayed we’d get
stopped at every traffic light along the way. Seth turned on his car, and the
engine roared to life.
“Whoa,” I said under my breath, but from
the smirk Seth gave me, I assumed he heard it.
He quickly punched my address into his
navigation system, and we were off.
Unfortunately for me, the streets of Atlanta were not crowded for once,
and we arrived at my house sooner than I’d hoped.
“Thank you. I had a great time,” I said
when he killed the engine after pulling into my driveway.
“You’re welcome, and so did I.”
Nice eight. It seems too good to want it to end, but I know that things are not always what they seem. You have me so nervous for
ReplyDeleteThat's how Calida feels as well. She's not ready for this date to be over, especially since the thinks she won't see him again.

Hmm, now he knows where she lives, is that good or bad? Visual scene.
ReplyDeleteWell...I'll let you in on a secret, he already knew where she lived. Asking for the address was all for show.

I'm not sure whether I want this night to end or not. lol. Will she invite him in? Should she? Ack! Can't wait for more!
ReplyDeleteYou are like Calida. She doesn't want the night to end either, but sadly it must. What will happen? Does she invite him in for a night cap? She's probably thinking about it.

I'm really conflicted about Seth I am not sure if he is a good guy or not yet...you're keeping me guessing
ReplyDeleteWell...his character is only a mystery to Calida. The reader knows exactly what and who Seth is from page 1.
Deletethanks for stopping by
Nice ending to their date. Does Seth have anything up his sleeve?
ReplyDeleteKeep smiling,
