Whew! I made it. Some new words, some new ideas. Those crazy MCs are off, doing things I hadn’t anticipated. It’s been interesting. First, a plug for WeWriWa! Check them out, many amazing writers sharing.
My snippet for the week, from Renegades: Book 2 of The Wildblood. This is a WIP, due to be release the first half of this year. Shannon and Hunter having a reunion after the events of book 1. Things are . . . tense.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
“What did I do wrong?” Hunter asked, leery.
“You could have asked me to come with you, when you left Estes Park.”
“You told me not to.”
“I might have eluded to it. The point is, you should have asked,” Shan told him, frustrated. He wasn’t like the other men she knew, the ones she’d grown up around. She had no trouble expressing herself to the select few of Team Three’s inner circle.
There was no winning the argument, he knew from past experience. “What about Mac?”
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Ah! What about Mac, indeed!
The Vista: Book 1 of The Wildblood is available on all formats again. You can find them here, or the picture goes right to Amazon. Comments are appreciated, and loved.
Revenge is one of the best motivations for a story. Question: Is this in omniscient POV? You’re in both of their heads here.

Makes me wonder if there’ll be problems between Hunter and McKenzie. Good snippet!

Hi Sheila. I always enjoy your dialogue, nicely done. Your MCs all fit like a favourite coat.
Just a quick question? Do you mean ‘avoid’ or ‘hinted’ at by using ‘elude’? Caitlin is way better at this than me, but I think you may be looking for ‘allude’?

Ah! You are correct. I’d meant to change that, but just kept on writing.

He is a smart man to know there is no winning that argument! A very tense start. I look forward to seeing where this leads.

I’m assuming this is a love triangle situation? Those are ALWAYS sticky in the most delightful ways 😀

It is, and it’s going to be interesting. I didn’t intend for this to get so complicated, but here it is.
