Snippet Sunday: Michaela’s past and her decision to live…@WildRosePress @KMNbooks #SpeekSunday #8sunday #snippetsunday
Welcome to Snippet Sunday. This is another snippet from Magic of the Loch. Today's snippet is a couple of sentences later from last week.
If you missed last weeks snippet, here's the link: Chapter 4 #2

Set up for the scene of Chapter 4 #3: Hyatt takes Michaela to Fiddler’s Luck for lunch. Alan has joined Hyatt and Michaela for a friendly lunch and a game of darts. Alan's question to why she chose Scotland to visit makes her think back to her last conversation with her ex-boyfriend. She has brain aneurysm and Blake, her ex, wants her to have an operation that most likely will not end well.
***Note: Snippet has been modified to fit the 8 sentence limit. Lots of changes to make this work, but I wanted to give you a quick insight to Blake and why Michaela wasn't keen on revealing she has an inoperable brain aneurysm to Alan and Hyatt.

(Thinking back scene...)
“I’m talking about saving your life and you want to take a vacation,” Blake said and his voice rose in frustration.
“I want to go to Scotland." Her gaze locked onto his. “Come with me.”
Blake pulled away from her, shaking his head. “I won’t watch you throw your life away.”
“I’m not throwing it away. I’m living it.”
**************************************************************************************************
A bossy boyfriend—even if he means well—is not what Michaela is looking for. Hmm... I wonder if Alan will be so bossy? She'll eventually have to tell him about her health, but remember Alan already senses something is wrong with her.
Like always thanks so much for stopping by. I would love to know what you thought of the snippet.
