Snippet Sunday: Former spouses, current stress #MFRWauthor #contemporaryromance #CowboyinCharge

Barbara White Daille Posted on June 5, 2016 by Barbara White DailleJune 4, 2016

Let’s kick off June with a snippet from a new book! In Cowboy in Charge, the next book in the Hitching Post Hotel series, former spouses Jason and Layne reunite at the worst possible time for the heroine. Here’s just a peek at why this is so:

Layne did the best she could with toothbrush and mouthwash and comb, but it wasn’t much. And it was quick.

The symptoms she had been battling for two days now had gotten worse instead of better, and the short time on her feet showed her just how shaky this flu had left her. She gave thanks that when she had gone to answer the door, she hadn’t been holding the baby.

The last thing she remembered before passing out was the look of alarm on Jason’s face. When she had come to, she found herself cradled like a baby herself in his arms. She had fainted for only a second, he assured her. Still, ignoring her protests, he carried her into the small living room and deposited her on the couch.

Moments later, her stomach had heaved and she had bolted and here she was now, hiding in her bathroom the way she and her friends had hidden in the girls’ room at school when they wanted to exchange gossip about the boys.

The only boy she’d ever had eyes for was Jason.
