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 …
Heaving a big sigh, Mark replied, “Nope. Not at all. It’s just a bit of a surprise.” Grabbing his own car keys, he added, “Come on over for dinner on Saturday and we’ll go through details.”
“No worries, mate. I look forward to it.”
Jared slid behind the steering wheel and started the engine. He was looking forward to his holiday. He needed one, and not necessarily because he was exhausted or worn out, although tired, yet he needed a break in his routine. Driving out of the parking lot, he followed Mark to the intersection ahead before turning in the opposite direction. His friend’s reaction showed him as well that it was time for a change. Apparently, his life was so predictable that even a holiday surprised his friends
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.
I’m curious to see what Aussies think of the US!
Ahh … interesting question. I hope the story does the question justice 🙂
I always love that moment when a character makes a left turn, does something new and different. Well done.
Aww, thank you, Adriana. ♥
I love stories of 2 lost souls finding each other. This is how your story resonates with me
Thank you, Trevann. Yes, I think you could describe the story just like that.
