Happy Sunday and hope you’re have a great weekend! Weekend Writing Warriors  #wewriwa, is a blog hop where authors share 8-10 sentences of their work.

This  week I’m sharing from my novella Game On! which releases on the longest day of the year,  June 21.  And just in time to pump you up for football season.

Heath Lancaster was happy to be on the practice squad on an NFL team, but instead of a lucky break taking him to the next level, a league-wide strike leaves him unemployed.  A new semi-pro league in Virginia Beach give him another opportunity, where a bikini-clad hottie snags one of his passes on the beach and offers him a tour of the area . . .  Heath was leaving practice when his cheating ex-girlfriend called out of the blue and he ends the conversation with:  “Ancient history and I’m a time zone away now.”

He accelerated the Jeep out of the sports complex. It had taken weeks to gain distance from her manipulations and now after her call, the commercial Virginia Beach oceanfront seemed intrusive.

A June sun blazed brightly in a cloudless sky while he cruised down Sand Fiddler Lane. Ninety degrees was cool compared to summer heat in Texas. When he’d signed the six-month lease on the house, the realtor touted Sandbridge as a locals’ beach.

He pulled into the driveway and found Dugan beneath the stilted house, applying a coat of wax to the chrome of his Fat Boy Harley. He and his linebacker buddy had scraped through college classes but shined on the gridiron. They’d landed on the practice
squad of a pro team in Texas a couple of years ago, but in March the league went on strike.

Dugan paused from his task and squinted at him with brown eyes. “You look pissed.”

Happy Mother’s Day! Weekend Writing Warriors  #wewriwa, is a blog hop where authors share 8-10 sentences of their work.

This  week I’m sharing from my novella Game On! which releases in June.

He clicked on his seat belt and started the open-door jeep when as his cell phone went off. For the first time in weeks, he answered without checking the display.

“Hey, babe,” Sandy cooed.

After a couple of weeks without calls, he figured she’d given up. “How’s Ben?”

What else should he say to the woman he’d found with her tongue down a friend’s throat? Make that former friend.

“You misunderstood,  he was inconsolable after Marcie left him.”

“Yeah right, so you were just giving him a little mouth to mouth resuscitation?”

Silence filled his ear before he shot back, “Ancient history and I’m a time zone away now.”
