#MFRWHooks “He wanted more in life.” #shamelessselfpromo #moviepitch #Netflix

Hi everyone –
I’m sharing another snippet from FRESH BEGINNINGS,
a story this is mainly set in the USA and follows our itinerary
when we travelled through five States in a motorhome a few years ago.

 Enjoy ♥♥

This week’s Hook …

Zach, who lived across the road from the Levesque / O’Connor clan in Chestnut Avenue, had met Natasha a few years earlier at one of Mia’s sports days. Natasha used to be Mia, Olivia, and Josh’s teacher until she moved on to a different school. One lucky man that Zach was, because she wasn’t only beautiful with her now-long, black hair and dark blue eyes, but also intelligent and very kind.

Except when it came to landscaping.

Jared’s gaze moved to Sophie, who smiled at her little girl. Then he caught Mark with a big grin plastered on his face watching his wife and daughter. Blowing out a little sigh, Jared noticed out of the corner of his eye how Josh took Mia’s hand into his own.

That was it. He’d had enough. It was kind of the last drop in a full bucket. He was sick of everybody else around him being happy except him. Without a doubt, he was pleased for them, but it was time that he took matters into his own hands and got out of his daily routine. He wanted more in life than getting up in the morning and working eight to ten hours only to return to an empty home. It wasn’t necessarily that he was looking for a partner — although that would have been nice — but he looked for something in life. Something to make him more content or his life more fulfilled.

With his thoughts drifting off as he gazed into the distance, he only vaguely followed the wedding ceremony.

Blurb:

Jared Fraser from Hobart, Australia, embarks on a journey in a motorhome down the legendary American Route 66. Yet, his travels take a couple of unexpected turns from his initial plans. One of which is meeting Ivy, a beautiful hitchhiker. As they spend time together, she captivates Jared and stirs long-dormant emotions within him.

Having recently made the difficult decision to leave her boyfriend, Ivy Bennett is determined start over and find her own happiness. When she unexpectedly crosses paths with Jared, their meeting sets off a chain of events that will test them both in unforeseen ways.

While on this journey, can they both find the strength to let go of their pasts and embrace the possibility of a fresh beginning.

This week’s Hook …

“The bride is late,” he heard someone say behind him. He had a guess it was Olivia, Mia’s best friend, who was always straightforward.

But as if on cue, the doors opened, and the bride entered the church.

Natasha looked beautiful in her lace-up, white chiffon dress. It was ruched at the back and emphasised her slim figure. She’d let her black hair grow and wore it in a French twist with pearls beaded into it. A delicate tiara graced her hairstyle.

Of course, he wouldn’t have known all the details if she hadn’t told him and shown him pictures as well as sketches so he would have had an idea for the flowers. Now that she was walking down the aisle, goose bumps spread across his skin. She looked stunning, and with a grin, he leaned back, satisfied the lily bouquet looked much better than any roses would have.

This week’s Hook …

Mia let out a loud laugh, which earned her a glare from Mark, who stood at the front next to Zach. It had surprised everyone that Zach had asked him to be his best man. Although what could one expect from a family which was pulled together in so many odd circumstances? Mark O’Connor was Sophie’s husband, Mia Levesque’s brother-in-law, and little Hope’s dad. And Jared’s best buddy.

“For what it’s worth, there’s a huge difference,” Jared said, but he was instantly shushed by Mark’s parents who sat one row behind them.

Rolling his eyes, he went back to admiring his floral arrangements, toying with the idea of adding this service to his business. Possibly with the help of a staff member.

This week’s Hook …

“Thanks. I thought so, too,” he replied. “Had to dig deep to remember how to do all of it.”

“Isn’t that your job?” Josh asked.

Josh was Mia’s boyfriend. They’d been going out for the last three years and were still going strong, a major feat considering they were in the strife of their teenaged years.

Jared was tempted to explain the difference between a florist and landscaping to Josh as well but decided not to.

He didn’t have to, after all.

“He’s a landscaper,” Sophie added to the conversation. “There’s a big difference.”

Jared cocked an eyebrow towards Sophie, who was desperately trying to get her three-year-old daughter, Hope, to drink her milk before her afternoon nap. He knew very well that she never understood the difference either.

Josh chuckled. “Yeah, mate, but green is green, and plants are plants. Right?”

This week’s Hook …

In the end, he’d given up and simply said yes.

He stretched his neck and hooked a finger inside his shirt collar, trying to get more comfortable. In his mind, suits should come with a little warning of Discomfort inevitable or something along that line. No wonder he’d never owned one. Sophie Levesque had helped him choose a nice outfit for the day from a local shop, and he had laughed at her comment that the suit needed to be right. It needed to go along with his brown eyes and dark blond hair, but it also needed to emphasise his physique.

What a lot of nonsense!

When she’d insisted he needed a haircut as well, he plain refused. The amount of time and effort he’d spent on buying a suit for one day was almost beyond his comprehension.

Smoothing the lapels of his jacket, he took in the flower arrangements in the chapel. A sense of pride rose in him at how well it’d come together after all. Natasha had been so determined to use roses, but in the end she’d listened to his advice, and chosen November Lilies. They were everywhere, including the bouquet, and the arrangements came off stunning yet humble. Exactly what she’d told him she wanted.

“You did well with the flowers,” Mia whispered in his ear, hauling him back from his thoughts.

“Thanks. I thought so, too,” he replied. “Had to dig deep to remember how to do all of it.”

This week’s Hook …

Jared Fraser took in the cheerful and relaxed atmosphere of the packed chapel. Every pew was filled, and ushers did their best showing the guests to their seats. Surprising, because he’d been told it was going to be a small ceremony, with only close friends attending. More surprising, however, was that he had received an invitation since the wedding couple, Zach and Natasha, weren’t even programmed into his phone speed dial and there were ten speed dial buttons. Or maybe twelve? He wasn’t sure.

Natasha had come to see him a few months earlier and asked him whether he would be able to help with the floral arrangements.

“Darling, I’m a landscaper, not a florist,” he’d explained.

She’d stared at him with her beautiful dark blue eyes. “Your point is?”

Pinching the bridge of his nose with his finger and thumb, he had replied, “You’ve studied at university. Didn’t they tell you about the difference?”

“Jared. I studied teaching, not botany.”

This week’s Hook …

Dylan Harper’s mouth edged up into a smile as he sauntered to the centre of the kitchen. “May I assume you’re Ms Dekker?”

He took her in. She was dressed for the local environment with her cargo pants, hiking boots, and a warm puffy jacket. Her wild, curly hair was held back in a ponytail with a white scrunchie. Her hair was an intense dark shade he’d never seen before. Her beautiful emerald green eyes were equally intriguing. He couldn’t help but be drawn in by them, even more so via the small distance between him and her. It didn’t go past him, though, that the very same eyes reflected a mix of worry and hesitation with every step he moved closer to her.

Blurb:

The discovery of her mother’s diaries unravels a secret which sends Lani on a journey to New Zealand …

She lost her mother in an accident. Now, Lani Dekker is determined to meet the man who, according to her mother’s diaries, is her father. He’s not what she expected, a bit on the extravagant side, but she soon warms up to him, thanks no less to Dylan, her father’s neighbour. Despite her attraction to Dylan, she can’t figure out whether he’s a friend or foe.

Dylan Harper is merely going through the daily motions after his wife died in a ski crash. That is, until his life is turned upside down by the arrival of his neighbour’s daughter. Their attraction is instant, even more so when they wake up in the same bed after an earthquake. However, it’s her accusation that his interest in her involves her father’s money rather than their mutual magnetism that derails their newfound bond.

Will finding the truth about her parents be a chance for Lani and Dylan to overcome their differences?

This week’s Hook …

Knowing she couldn’t leave again this late in the day, she placed her backpack on the floor and went in search of a glass. She was desperate for a drink of water. She liked the cabin style kitchen. Running her hand over the wooden bench, she peered out the window into the near darkness, still confused by it all.

Looking around, she found about half a dozen cups on hooks hanging from a shelf that held beautiful storage containers for sugar, coffee, and tea. Underneath another shelf was a vast selection of herbs and spices. Lani took a cup and a teabag as she imagined cleaning the dishes while enjoying the view across the mountains and the lake. The peace and comfort that spread through her made her yearn for a place like this. A smile formed on her lips, but it didn’t stop a trickle of envy spreading through her as she went in search of a kettle. An assortment of frying pans hung on hooks above the stove. Cooking pots rested next to it on shelves. It was such a contrast to her grandmother’s small kitchen. Plates of various sizes were stacked underneath, and right behind them was an old-fashioned red stove kettle. She reached for it to fill it with water, but instead the steps around the corner caught her attention. Curious, she went halfway up the stairs, which led to the upper level of the house.

A slight shiver ran down her spine, as she stepped on the creaking boards and called a hesitant, “Hello?”

“Welcome.”

Lani shot around and dropped the kettle which clattered down the stairs in a thunderous echo. “Mr Larson?”

This week’s Hook …

In her anger, she grabbed the door handle with the intent of letting out her irritation only to find it unlocked. Surprised, she froze, hesitated, then shoved the door a little and entered.

“Hello?”

Had she fallen for a scam when she’d booked a room at this place? It had all looked so genuine.

“Hello?” She tried again, this time a bit louder, but still no reply.

Taking a couple of deep breaths to steady her heartbeat, she moved along the hall from door to door until she reached the kitchen.

“Hello?”

Still no reply. She found the light switch and turned it on. Looking around, the place had a lived-in feeling, tidy and well maintained, but nothing that would provide her with a clue as to where her host was.
