Today’s Snippet
But had he? Of course he hadn’t. Otherwise being in the house with an attractive woman would excite him instead of causing his emotions to go haywire. Rememberinghow often he’d come home from school in tears because of all the nasty things he’d been told, not coping with the teasing by the other children, the degrading by the teachers, or the laughter from the girls made his stomach churn. He’d been the ugly kid in the neighbourhood. And he’d hated it.
Shit!
He didn’t want to relive his past, he wanted to forget about the braces and thick glasses, but also the fact that he’d lived with his grandmother because his mother had run off with some French guy and he had no idea about his father.
Blurb
Confronted with the choice to care for his friend’s family on the other side of the world or to return to Alinta Bay to be with his own newfound family, how will Noah choose?
Following the death of his grandmother, Noah Fielding returns to Alinta Bay and the first thing — or person — he finds is the next-door neighbour in his nan’s bathroom — naked no less. Still jetlagged, he doesn’t hit it off with Molly at first. Yet, over the next few weeks, as his past uncovers itself bit by bit, she becomes is anchor, his friend, and his lover.
Molly Reid had the world at her feet, happily married with a young son … until a tragic car accident took everything away from her. With her heart broken, she moves to Alinta Bay to escape the memories of the past. Her peaceful existence, however, is interrupted after a heavy storm floods her house and she temporarily moves into her recently deceased neighbour’s house next door.
When Noah’s friend and partner goes missing during a routine flight, Noah returns to Alaska to help, but will he come back for Molly?
The only way to get past it is to confront it. He’s doing fine!
So true! And he will! 🙂
Thanks, Nancy.
Great glimpse into his past that certainly will color his current and future actions. Poor Noah! He deserves an HEA!
Thanks, Jenna. It hasn’t been easy, but … it’ll all change 😉
I can somewhat relate. I was the ugly kid in elementary school. It still sticks with me today, feeling unattractive. I still find it difficult sometimes that my wife finds me good looking. But, she is all that matters even if others don’t, right? Glad Noah has found his wings. Great snippet.
So sorry to hear, Jeff. It’s a shame that we still judge a book by its cover. But I think it’s getting better nowadays.
Glad you liked the snippet. 🙂
