Enchanting Excerpt:
Frank
Hickman unwrapped a stick of gum and shoved it into his dry mouth. He drove
slowly passed the house for the second time, to the tune of John Legend's All of Me. The yard looked like a toy
store had exploded there. Well, it is the
Christmas holidays, he thought, removing the gum. It only made his mouth
drier.
Not
only did cars fill the driveway, leaving one barricaded spot untouched,
curbside was a parking lot. There were so
many vehicles for so early on a
Christmas Eve morning. His inclination was to keep driving. However, he didn't
get to act on the notion.
As
he watched, the glass door to the front of the house burst open. Azure exited
on the run. Frank jammed on the brake. He turned down the volume on the sound
system. She sprinted right up to the truck as it hummed in the middle of the
street. Her face had a peachy glow as she leaned on the passenger side door.
Was the abrupt exertion the cause? He believed she was truly glad to see him.
Frank
lowered the window.
"Don't
think you're going to sneak off," Azure said.
Moisture
returned to his mouth at the purr in her voice. He wanted nothing more than to
lay a passionate kiss on her alluring lips. Her smile warmed him all over, even
as cold air filtered inside his vehicle. She shivered.
"When
you invited me to breakfast this morning, to meet your family—" Frank fingered the neck of his shirt, "—I
thought it was to meet your parents."
A
sneaky, humorous look entered her eyes. Azure wound her arms across the front
of her body at the gusty wind. "They're inside." Her high spirits
were evident in the naughty lilt of her voice.
"Yeah.
And from the looks of it, so is everyone else."
"You
know how it is when out of town guests swarm in for the holidays."
Frank remained mute, because he didn't.

My first two audio books were released this week, a children's novel and a nonfiction historic interview book on Amazon.com, Audible.com and iTunes
ReplyDeleteMystery of Spider Mountain is a somewhat autobiographical novel for 9-12 year old readers, which takes place in the Hollywood Hills with bank robbers, a Ouija board and a lost child in the wilderness. The book teaches children how to survive until someone rescues them: http://www.amazon.com/Mystery-Spider-Mountain-Hamilton-Kids/dp/B00HACWRJI/ref=sr_1_1_bnp_1_audd?ie=UTF8&qid=1387653362&sr=8-1&keywords=mystery+of+spider+mountain
Westerners: Candid and Historic Interviews is a great gift for anyone who enjoys listening to old cowboys and cowgirls talk about their lives in the early 1900s, as well as the infamous grandsons of Buffalo Bill and president William Henry Harrison and many others. Plenty of humor and background of our ancestors. It also includes writers, artists, politicians, a bunkhouse publisher, an early woman pilot and friend of Ameilia Earhart and may others: http://www.amazon.com/Westerners-Candid-and-Historic-Interviews/dp/B00HFSIVBU/ref=tmm_aud_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1387651372&sr=8-1
Both books are also available in print and ebook editions.
