Rainbow Snippets November 3rd
Happy Sunday! The weather has been a true roller coaster ride this week! From bright and sunny to dark, cold, chilly nasty rain that feels like icicles pelting you. Egh. Today at least is lovely and sunny out and warm(ish). We are nearly into winter here and I already miss temps in the 60’s and 70’s. All too brief…
A little longer snip today for context as Jared gets a stern warning from his least favorite teacher.
This week I’m sticking with one of my first creations, “Love by the Numbers’. This has had a few covers, but the latest is below. The story is the same…about Scott the nerd and Jared the jock and how they find love while battling high school, hormones, and parental issues.

Blurb: Jared Adams is the smokin’ hot darling of the school baseball team. Girls fawn all over him and the world is at his feet.
Except he can’t do math.
Enter Scott Williams: nerd and mathlete. He’s only supposed to help Jared with math, but the help – and friendship – go further than that.
Fate made them friends, but is friendship all they have?

When Scott passed by, Jared tried to catch a glimpse of his classmate’s face but Scott’s head was always down, always hidden.
Jared’s
attention was diverted when he saw the oversized brilliant red “F” at the top
of his test. He
growled and rolled his eyes, a move which did not go unnoticed by the teacher.
“Good job, class. Most of you did very well. Those of you who didn’t, I need to speak with after class. Class dismissed. See you tomorrow.” Scott usually lagged behind, giving himself time to gather his things. He watched Jared slowly shuffle over to the teacher, facing her. She shook her bony finger at him.
“Mr.
Adamson, you are failing this course. The semester began over two months ago! I
suggest you forget next spring’s baseball season and get more serious about
your studies.”
Jared’s
eyes grew wide, but his tone remained irritated. “The homework is too hard! No
one but the real brains can even pass your tests. Ain’t there another way?”
