Heart and Soul #8sunday #snippetsunday #HeartandSoul
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.
Maverick Strummer owed Heart and Soul, a coffeehouse located in Orange County, California, where cover bands and local talents flocked for a chance to be the headliner at the small intimate venue. Every Friday and Saturday night, the sound of music poured out of the back room like a siren's call. The close-up and personal setting for the audience proved an experience not soon forgotten either, and the fact Maverick served coffee, tea, and appetizers was also a new reality for most who liked their rock 'n' roll served with alcohol and a side of drugs.
"Last call," Maverick shouted over the din of conversation, which meant order your specialty coffees to go. Heart and Soul was closing in twenty minutes. The collective ahs of disappointment sounded like a choir warming up for their next song. "Gotta call it a night sometime," he said with a grin. "I need my beauty sleep."
"You're too dang pretty already," Joni Lee said from the back table and turned and grinned at her two friends Ben and Rafe, who were in the band that played tonight. She was a twenty-four year old blonde, who had big green eyes and a dimple in her right cheek that winked into existence when she smiled.

Love to hear your feed back.
