Another six from my new novel, 'Changing the Future' which was released last week! Blurb: Lisa Marshall is stunned when celebrated volcanologist Paul Hamilton comes back into her life at the college where she now teaches. Despite their acrimonious break-up several years earlier, they soon realise the magnetic attraction between them is stronger than ever. However, the past is still part of the present, not least when Paul discovers Lisa has a young son. They can’t change that past, but will it take a volcanic eruption to help them change the future?
This six comes straight after Lisa has caught sight of Paul for the first time on the college campus.
Dimly she heard Millie call out something about coffees in the cafeteria. The world had receded and she was aware only of the painful pounding in her chest. Shock mixed with incredulity, and her mind simply refused to believe what her eyes had seen.
When she reached the Old House, she went straight to the ladies’ room. To her relief, no one else was there. She didn’t dare think, didn’t dare allow herself to feel anything, not until she’d managed to control the trembling which was shaking her whole body.
'Changing the Future' is available at $3.99 on Amazon

Yes, it really was a bitter break-up, Elin (you sneaked in there while I was writing my other replies LOL!)
ReplyDeleteVery evocative reaction, Paula! These two clearly have some things to work out.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Kate, they have a LOT to woork out!
