Welcome to Snippet Sunday! This is a snippet from Two Worlds Collided. How do you like the official cover for the book?
LOOKING FOR last week's SNIPPET from Chapter Two: Snippet #1
Now for Chapter Two - Body Language
Evie has been hired to be Bellamy's assistant and is at the hotel. She just met the band, but her brother doesn't care for the way Clark, one of the band members, is eyeing his sister.
We're skipping ahead a few paragraphs.
*****************************************************************************************************************
"Behave, Clark," Bryce warned. "That is my sister you're eyeing like a delicious treat."
Clark lifted his hands. "Just being friendly."
"A little less friendly would be good. Don't want to have to deck you," Bryce teased.
"I give you permission to deck him," Leon said.
"Hey," Clark answered, but laughed good-heartedly.
Leon glanced toward the door for the fifth time. "Typical Bellamy," he murmured, "always late."
*****************************************************************************************************************
Do you have the feeling that the band members may have known each other a while? And where or where is Bellamy? lol
Blurb for Two Worlds Collided:
Evie Reid on a whim agrees to travel back in time to change bad boy Bellamy Lovel's path of destruction. She's smart with a college degree, but she is still fan-girl crazy for the rock band, Civilized Heathens. Evie knows despite all Bellamy's smiles and enthusiasm on the stage, he's destined to end it all on one lonely night in a hotel room unless she can change his path.
Bellamy isn't keen on having Evie as his personal assistant, hired by his band mates to watch over him, and keep him on schedule. However, there is something about the woman that sparks his interest, despite his best to ignore her. When darkness threatens to consume him, he realizes she may be the only light that will chase the shadows away.

Nice banter. It sounds smooth and authentic while also characterizing several band members.
Yes, it’s obvious they’ve known each other for a while. It comes across as playful banter, but I sense there is an underlying threat there, too, when it comes to his sister.
Love their banter! Great job!
always fascinating and fun.
Excellent conversation going on, shows the relationships and the comfort levels…great snippet!
Just kidding about. But, where is Bellamy?
If he’s typically late, I wonder if they’re worried if he’ll even show up. Great snippet, Karen. 🙂
I love their friendly repartee back and forth. It’s nice to have friends you’re that relaxed and natural around.
Great snippet–love their dialogue–can’t wait to see what happens.
She can probably stand up for herself, but it’s always nice to have support.
Fun banter. Love Leon giving Bryce permission to deck Clark.
Great give and take, here, very authentic interaction.
Love the new cover! Great banter between them, they all seem like really good friends, as if they aren’t tired of seeing each other all the time.
