This week’s Hook …
Lani stepped closer then up onto the front porch. Only the buzzing of a few insects disturbed the quiet. A shiver ran down her spine as she moved to the front door and knocked. There were no lights inside the lodge, and even though it wasn’t dark, she would’ve expected one or two lights on already.
She knocked again, worry creeping up within her. A thousand thoughts tumbled through her head. What if nobody was here? There was nowhere to go. A mix of frustration and anxiety caused a few tears to well up as she knocked once more. This time a bit harder. Still nothing. Not even a sound of creaking floorboards. Lani pulled the phone from her pocket, but she didn’t have any service whatsoever.
“Goddammit.”
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?
No service on cell. Now that’s scary.
We’re so used to them, it scares us not to be able to use them. Thanks for stopping by Daryl.
Hopesomeone comes soon but then again hope the person is friendly.
Yes, someone safe 😉 Thanks Jan.
Isolated, alone – up the provervial creek without a paddle. Wonder what will happen next!
kinda scary, right? Thanks for stopping by, Adriana.
Very creepy, why is no one answering the door? Is some one watching her? No cell service. She could be in deep trouble.
Lots of reasons instead. We’ll find out soon.
Thanks Tena.
