Twirl and Dip (WIP)
She nodded with a hint of a smile. "We told your manager you were fine, and you would get in touch. He seemed relieved after he realized who Maverick was and his connection with the Roadside Reapers."
"Thank you. Believe me it wasn't my intention to cause so much trouble."
Rowan reached for the carafe on the counter and topped off his coffee cup with the warm brew. "The woman back home… Do you love her?" Rowan asked as she met his gaze.
He didn't expect the question, but he didn't have to think about the answer. "I do."
That's the ten. Here's a little more to finish the scene.
She nodded as if she approved and he rather liked that she did. "Sometimes, all we need is a second chance."
Possible Blurb:
Eastyn has her soda shop to run and specialty ice creams to create. Only the place is falling apart, and she may have a haunted jukebox that chooses songs to communicate. If things couldn't get any more complicated, Drake, her ex-fiancé, returns home after five years on the road with his rock band, Never Mind the Damage.
Eastyn vows not to fall for Drake's charms again, but when you have a lifetime of memories with the man, the heart seems not to care about pledges. Her haunted jukebox believes choosing the right song to twirl and dip to is the answer to everything. However, Eastyn isn't convinced. She wants to know if Drake is home for good, or will he break her heart all over again?

Are you excited yet? Yes, you say. Me, too. ♥
I wonder how open he’s been about his feelings for the woman before this. Or will this revelation become a major turning point?
Ed,
He’s been thinking about it but it’s the first time he’s voice it out loud.
Nice sene. Rowan seems to have made a connection with him. So, he’s declared his feelings for Eastyn. Now, to act on it and convince her that he deserves a second chance. Good scene!
Teresa,
We’ll see how that goes. 🙂
Yes we do, don’t we. I liked the snippet.
Yep, we do.
He’d better be a bit more organized in his approach to this woman he loves! But therein hangs the tale..excellent excerpt.
Veronica,
You’ll have to wait and see. lol
Well, he didn’t have to think about the answer, the question is – what’s he going to do about it?
Ian,
We’ll soon find out.
I’m glad he didn’t hesitate. He’s going to need to be sure to get that second chance.
Alexis,
Yes, he will.
A nice scene. Sometimes it takes another person to affirm the truth.
Sometimes. 🙂
Well, he’d better take advantage of the second chance while he has it, and not take off this time. Nice snippet!
Jessica,
Thank you
I love a second chance romance. And she’s right, sometimes that’s all it takes. Great snippet!
Jenna,
So glad you enjoy second chance romances. 🙂
He’s doing well so far. Let’s hope it will carry over and show his girl back home how serious he is.
Jeff,
We can only hope. 🙂
If he still has feelings, I’m wondering what drove them apart – and if it’s enough to do it again this time.
I like that he didn’t even have to think about it.
