❤ Happy Sunday everyone and
thank you for stopping by for a visit. ❤
I'm
giving you snippets from the prequel from Seasons of Love and War. Thought it
was time for some cheer.
Left off last week with Kaylob telling Beth Ann that it
wasn't every day you meet the girl you're gonna marry.
Since Beth Ann has never even liked a boy, it may take her a
while to warm up to him.
Even if he is handsome, with the most beautiful eyes she's
ever seen.
And for some odd reason she has feelings of butterflies
swarming in flights of fancy in her stomach.
“Beth Ann wait! please don’t leave.”
His deep voice did something to her she didn't fully understand.
She whipped around trying to act madder than she felt, “I'm never going to be anybody’s wife,
ever!” she locked her gaze on him.
“Why would you say that? he asked, practically laughing.
“Because, I don’t ever want to cook and I'll never have kids and, and, I just don’t like boys.”
His grin reached the corners of his eyes, “oh, I think you like me just fine, why else would your face be so red?" he chuckled.
“Besides, I have plenty of time to help you change your mind,"
I would say Kaylob is smitten and smitten bad.

So sweet to see them when they were kids! And I bet Kaylob is right about changing her mind. ;-)

ReplyDeleteI think you're right Dean. Thank you so much. :-)
DeleteOmg, I love seeing them when they were young. I hope this book comes out soon. I would so love to read it. Really great job Brenda!
ReplyDeleteAhh thanks Shannon. Not sure about this one but I'm hoping so too. :-)
DeleteI posted this once and it didn't take so hoping it will this time. I agree with shannon and AJ, this is so sweet and I adore seeing them young. Fun, fun, fun. Really good job at showing her feelings. :)
ReplyDeleteNot surprised Lisa. I had ton's of trouble the last two weeks. But thank you for getting here. :-)
DeleteI think Kaylob understands her better than she knows herself. It's wonderful to have a glimpse of them as younger, happier people. Excellent excerpt!
ReplyDeleteYou might just be right Veronica. Thank you so much. :-)
Deletewhat a cute scene. It does seem that he already knows Beth Ann. I kinda think they'll end up together. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteI think your right too Alex. Thank you so much for being here. :-)
Deleteloved this scene so much that I wanted to keep reading. I can't wait until next week. I love their flirting, or should I say his. lol great eight!
ReplyDeleteThank you Shannon. They are flirting and she did too last week. :-)

ReplyDeleteThank you Sandra. :-)
DeleteI love how your snippets cover all the relevant time frames. And the parts that come later are filled in with the earlier ones.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sue and thank you for stopping by. :-)
DeleteGreat scene! I think you captured those confusing "first love" feelings on her part perfectly! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, that first love is always so special . Thank you so much. :-)
DeleteThis is so wonderful. And timeless. Great job.
ReplyDeleteIt is timeless. Thank you so much.. :-)
DeleteAre they the same age? Usually girls mature a little faster than boys.
ReplyDeleteNo, he's older and way more mature. Actually Beth Ann is a little bit immature which will come out later due to her being so sheltered and Kaylob had to grow up fast. It will all come out. :-) Thank you Sue.
DeleteThat was fun. I love the strength she shows for speaking up for what she wants and him for seeing right through it. More please.
ReplyDeleteThanks, she wants no part of cooking or children. Glad you stopped by. :-)
DeleteI love Kaylob!! Their relationship has an awesome beginning! :D Great 8!
