New Release Monday

Welcome to the New Release Monday. This
month, in addition to our typical excerpt week, we’re showcasing new releases by several fabulous EM writers. Excerpt Monday site! or click on the banner above.

My excerpt Monday for January was already an excerpt from Trusting Destiny, which releases February 9.

I debated whether to put up a second excerpt, and decided to give you a very short one, from a different part of the book.

Enjoy:

from Trusting Destiny

She went to work early Tuesday morning in a foul mood, fractious and distracted by her uncertainty.  The day passed quietly, with her co-workers scurrying out of her way.  No one wanted to brave her temper today – each of them had brushed against her rough edges at one time or another.  By the time she got home, she had worked herself into a fit of righteous anger, placing the blame for her mood squarely on Eric’s head.

He hadn’t called.

He could have called.

What, did he think she was just some casual pick up?  Or maybe he thought he could just yank her chain, and she’d let him.  Well, he wasn’t going to get away with that.  No, she was going to march into his office and show him that she could yank his chain just as well as he could yank hers.  It might only be three in the afternoon, but it was the end of her workday, and he should have called.  She whipped her little car into a visitor space outside his building.  Her plan was simple.  Go in, blow his mind – or at least his head – and get out.  See if he could ignore her after that.

Students scattered from her path.  They might be novice learners, but they were obviously well-versed in self-preservation.
