BLURB:
Kate is
ready to start a new life in a great city. Determined to follow her dream, she
left college to write a book. Arriving in New York City, she vows to live in
the present, not the past. Easy for most to say, except she has a secret. Kate
is a time traveler. She met the love of her life back in 1927. But he’s
here now. No looking back. No going back.

Exclusive Excerpt:
Over
the course of that evening, the girls got to know each other and promised to
stay in touch. Many texts, phone calls and a few face-to-face meetings took
place over the last two years. Kate understood Randi’s struggles. She wanted to
act. Freddie wished she worked at the law firm.
“So
you were only eighteen the first time we met?” Randi asked. “Kate? Did you hear
me?”
“What?
Oh, yes.” Kate blinked a few times.
“Where
were you?” Randi stared at her. “I think I know. You were thinking of that hot
guy you call a fiancĂ©e. When are you two tying the knot? You’ve been engaged
like forever.”
Kate
inwardly cringed. If only Randi knew she called her uncle “hot”. “Still in the
planning stages. We’re in no rush.” She sighed again. “It’s only been a week,
but I miss him. We talk every day.”
“Say
no more.” Randi rummaged through her Gucci light green leather handbag “Darn
phone! Where are you?” She came up with the device and punched in a number.
“Papa! Hello, my favorite uncle of all time.” She grinned at Kate. “I will
visit. Soon. First I have a favor. Can you fly Kate home this weekend? She
needs to see her man. The sooner the better.” She lifted her eyebrows at Kate.
“You’re the best. I love you.” She hung up and studied Kate with one eye
closed. “You need some sex in your life. Go home, surprise Drew and stay in bed
all weekend.”
Kate
took a deep breath. Randi said whatever came to mind. She didn’t want to
discuss her sex life. She barely talked with her best friend, Lindsey, about
that part of her life. “Randi!”
“Oh?
You don’t have sex?” Randi’s beautiful chocolate brown eyes stared her down.
If
only she knew how hard I had to try when he came to the present. Drew and his
old-fashioned values. Kate rolled her
eyes. “Yes, of course.”
“Details.”
“Drew’s
a private person, Randi. He wouldn’t like me talking about him.” Especially to
you!

ReplyDeleteThanks for having me!
ReplyDeleteDo you ever suffer from writer’s block and, if so, how do you overcome it?
ReplyDeleteI think every writer does, Peggy. I sometimes have to walk away or go back to the beginning and read every word I wrote up to that point. A good cup of tea helps, too!
DeleteThanks for sharing the excerpt :)
