Setup for this snippet: WIP from Heart and Soul. This is a snippet from my new 'rock star romance' that I'm working on. It's in the very early stages.
Last week Rowan is dreaming about another life. The dream continues...
This is Rowan's POV.
***
"I'm worried about tomorrow," she told him and was disappointed when he stopped their swaying to gently push her away so he could meet her gaze.
"There is no need to worry."
"What if they don't like my songs? What if they don't like me?"
"They're going to love you. Trust me, your lyrics will enchant them all."
His words were meant to comfort her but she still couldn't shake the feeling as if something could go wrong.
"Once you have a good night's sleep, you'll see," he told her, and his lips curved as he tucked her hair behind her ear. "Everything will look brighter in the morning. 'Cause the sun always chases the shadows away."

Love to hear your feed back. 🙂
About Heart and Soul...
80s rock star, Haley Rose went missing without a trace on October 31 1988 and was eventually presumed dead. Three decades later, a thirty-year old woman, Rowan Beckett recalls things only Haley Rose would know and she can belt out songs in the same fashion as the missing 80s star. However, Rowan couldn't be the missing rock star since the woman would now be in her fifties. Could Haley Rose have came back reincarnated as Rowan Beckett?

Oh glory, she had the premonition. Great snippet, Karen. I believe the phrase is “Good night’s sleep/rest” as a possessive quality to night. Looking forward to this one.
Thanks. I’ll look at that.
Great snippet! Another beautiful scene.
Siren,
Thank you.
A mysterious dream – who is she with and what does it mean?
Aurora,
The mystery will unfold…
Oh dear, I feel a discordant note creeping in with this premonition of hers. Nicely done, a bit of foreboding…loved the snippet!
Veronica,
Glad you enjoyed the snippet.
I love what I suspect is irony — because tomorrow will not be brighter, but darker. Am I right?
Ed,
So very true.
I wonder if the dream will include the concert.
(And I wonder why I suddenly don’t trust the man in this dream?)
P.T.,
There will be music… soon.
Awww this is adorable! I love it! 😀
Amy,
So glad you did.
Sometimes comfort isn’t what you want. Though in this case, I suspect she has a premonition of whatever ended her life.
Caitlin,
Could be.
Lovely snippet … i hope for her sake tomorrow will be brighter!
Hmm, their relationship must be moving forward. 🙂
I reckon something is about to go wrong…
It’s hard to trust a dream guy when your intuition is telling you no. Great snippet!
