For this week, I'm sharing a little piece of my very first novel, Forest Girl, which I am preparing for submission. In this story, my hero finds himself in an arranged marriage. This snippet comes from the wedding, when he first sets eyes on his wife-to-be:
The bride was young, early to mid-twenties at the most, and attractive. Strike that—she was beautiful. Under different circumstances he might have chosen her of his own accord. Her eyes met his briefly and she smiled a little shy smile that was cute in every way.
Don't stare. He tore his eyes away from her.
