Snippet Sunday, April 27


Welcome back to Snippet Sunday at Creative Hodgepodge! I have one more snippet from The Friendship Star Quilt, co-written with my friend Stephanie Michels. This dialogue happens only a few minutes after those from April 13's snippet:


A few minutes later, an early model sedan raced into the lot in front of the shop, and skidded to a halt. The driver’s side opened, and a tall man in a blue windbreaker jumped out. His dark hair practically stood on end, as if he’d been running worried fingers through it. He glanced around, spotted the shop, and hurried toward it. Without a word, he rushed to Jennie’s side and scooped her up in a tight embrace.
“Jennie, I am so, so sorry! I knew the party was over at five-thirty. I should have set the alarm on my phone. I’m so sorry you had to wait for me.”



The Friendship Star Quilt is available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Smashwords, as well as other ebook outlets. It’s the second book in the Stitching Post series. Book One, The Calico Heart, is a finalist for a RONE award (Reward of Novel Excellence) in the Contemporary – General category!

  4. I hope that Anne lets him have it! Yes, he should have set his alarm. And his daughter will remember this event the rest of her life. Speaking from experience here. No, I'm not traumatized. Not at all. Twitch.:-D
