Can
she let go of the past, before it destroys her future?
Excerpt from End of Lonely Street:
“Don’t.
Please, don’t.” Hearing Noah say the
words tore her apart, even though they were the words
she wanted to hear. “It doesn’t matter anymore. I can’t be with you.” Regret ripped through her heart “Not ever.”
He
gripped her fingers and placed a soft kiss on
the tips. Toby shuddered and tried to draw in a breath.
“Don’t
say that.” His words were a tormented
whisper. “Please don’t say that. I can’t lose you forever. I won’t.”
She
squeezed her eyes shut. “I can’t, don’t you see?
Every time I think of you…with her. I get sick to my
stomach. And every time I see you, I think of that
night.” She opened her eyes and stared directly into his. “Looking at you makes me
sick.”He flinched. “You can’t mean that.”
“I
do. Don’t you understand? My mother has tainted
you…tainted us. She taints everything she touches, and I’ll never be free of her.”
He compressed his lips, his voice harsh when he spoke. “That’s your choice. You can’t
define yourself by your mother’s actions.
We’re responsible for our own lives, our own destiny.”
She
snorted a laugh. “That sounds awful nice, but
I haven’t ever had control of my destiny, my life. I’m tethered to my mother as long as
she’s alive.”
She
turned away from his scrutiny—afraid he could see her darkest thoughts. See that
sometimes, she wished for her
mother’s death. Would he still think she was the
girl of his dreams if he knew that?

Thank you for having me! Yes, I will expire without coffee. :) Footwear: Sneakers and flats. How long have I been writing? I wrote my first romance at 11 years old, and I still have a copy. I've taken several lengthy breaks over the years, but I've wanted to write all my life.
Hi, Alicia! I won't expire without coffee, but maybe without my diet dr. pepper. lol.
welcome !
Unlike most people, when I think of Oklahoma I think of good food. LOL - Best restaurant I ever ate at was in some small town outside of Oklahoma City.
But I'm afraid I'm a tea person - can't relate to coffee at all
on the bright side - love a good book! Lonely Street sounds like a winner!
Haha, Vicki. We all have our needs. :)
Thank you for the welcome, Chris! Yes, Oklahoma has some wonderful food, as my waistline proves. :) You don't remember the name of the town? Where do you live? I appreciate you stopping by. I hope if you read my book, you enjoy!
Hi Alicia! It's so nice to see you here with us since I see you around on several of my loops. :)
Congrats your your book! Sounds like a great read, I'm looking forward to it!
Best wishes for many, many sales!
Yes, Karilyn, I do get around. :) Thank you so much for having me. I hope you enjoy the book!
Hi Alicia, glad you dropped by to spend the day with the Plotting Princesses. I do drink coffee, but only occasionally. I like my caffeine cold so it's usually diet soda. LOL
As a fellow writer of romantic suspense, I love it when a great romance feed throughout the pages, enhancing everything, don't you?
This book sounds like another winner. I'll have to check it out.
