Winter forest and an autumn tree… Heart and Soul #8sunday #snippetsunday
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 couldn't help but admire her new boss but she has another agenda and it has nothing to do with starting a relationship.
This is Rowan's POV.

She shifted her gaze to take in the rest of the room—from the matching end tables to the four-drawer, pine dresser. The window on the far wall was adorned with dark blue curtains tied back to reveal the white blinds nestled behind them, hiding the view she might have to the outside world. However, a framed oil painting, depicting a winter forest where an autumn tree stood with its leaves falling silently to blanket the ground, hung on the wall next to it. It communicated loneliness and at the same time, a quiet beauty she couldn't ignore. Definitely not a bad thing to see the moment her eyes blinked into awareness after a good night's slumber.
"The sheets are new."
With a start, her gaze riveted to Maverick and all thoughts of lonely autumn trees slipped her mind.
"Just in case you were wondering," he said with an awkward cadence lacing his words. "Anyhow, that's the bedroom." He turned away and headed back down the hall as if escape was in order.

Could it be possible he'd been doing a little daydreaming about her too?
Love to hear your feed back.
