#8Sunday – Lunar Falls and Parting Glances

Happy Sunday, Everyone! Hope you’re enjoying your weekend. Welcome to my installment of Weekend Writing Warriors, the cool blog hop where writers of every genre share 8 sentences from something they’ve written. It’s a great way to sample new writers and find some new favorites, so be sure to click through and check out the others.

Today, I’m continuing on in chapter 4 of my new paranormal romance, Secrets of Lunar Falls. This scene continues on from last week when Gabe witnessed Carly being passionate in her support of the protected wolf pack in the area, and he’s impressed with her. A little creative punctuation has occurred to fit the scene into eight sentences.

He stared into her eyes now feeling the strongest pull as he listened to her heart beating, hearing it speed up as she realized he was staring. 
Carly suddenly felt her face grow hot again as he gazed down at her like that. Was that amusement in his eyes or something else, something more raw. She looked away self-consciously as the flutters in her stomach took on new life and the tingle in her skin grew more pronounced.
“Thanks again for your help. Keep me posted on those test results, will you?” he said, his voice deep and gravelly as he looked at her like he wanted to eat her. And he felt her timid gaze through long dark lashes like a blow to his gut. 
“Yeah,” she breathed, moving an escaped tendril of raven hair from her hazel eyes.
He turned away without another word and got into his truck, starting it up and driving away, and Carly released the breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding.

Secrets of Lunar Falls is now available for purchase wherever ebooks are sold. You can also order the paperback from Amazon.

Here’s the official blurb:

When veterinarian, Dr. Carly Tipton, takes a new job in the tiny farming community of Lunar Falls, she expects to build a new life for herself. She expects to meet new people and have new experiences. Maybe she’s even expecting a little adventure. But what she’s not expecting is to fall head over heels in love – not with the town, and certainly not with its ruggedly sexy sheriff, Gabriel Masters. She’s also not expecting all the secrets Lunar Falls is hiding. Secrets that could destroy everything she ever believed was true about her own heritage and the family she left back home.

Gabe isn’t ready for Carly when she blows into town. That woman has the power to bring him – a man born and raised to be a GrandAlpha – to his knees, and she’s human! That simple fact alone makes her dangerous to Gabe’s position within the pack. But the fact that he can’t seem to stay away from her tells him that this woman is the one. Human or not … she’s his mate. And now Gabe has to find a way to make their bonding complete without sparking a civil war among his people.

Secrets of Lunar Falls is book one of an adult, sexy shifter romance trilogy.
