Slippery Slope – Mysti and Starr @katehillromance #weekendwritingwarriors #paranormalromance

Posted on January 9, 2022January 8, 2022 by Kate

Welcome to the Weekend Writing Warriors blog hop! Every week writers share 8-10 sentences from their work.

This excerpt from Wild Witches of Beaver Bay 1: Mysti and Starr picks up where last week’s left off.

Thank you for stopping by!

Excerpt:

The woods were nearly dark as night now, except for blinding flashes of lightning. Starr was thoroughly soaked from rain and had been nearly deafened by thunder. Storms always seemed worse in the mountains. He hurried to unpack his meager equipment.

Lightning flashed and a nearby tree crashed to the ground. Starr’s heart pounded and he backed away fast. That was too close for —

Starr slipped and tumbled down a rocky, leaf-strewn decline. For several seconds he could only grunt and try to roll with the fall. He landed on his stomach, the wind momentarily knocked out of him.


Mysti and Starr (Wild Witches of Beaver Bay 1)
by Kate Hill

A blazing trail only he can see leads demon hunting biker Starr Johanson to his destined mate. A blessing placed on her family’s ancestral land summons Mysti Wild to the cabin where she’ll meet the man fated to share her life.

Each fears the other will be frightened by magic they don’t understand, but they quickly learn to trust each other, because no one can resist the person they were born to love.

From Changeling Press.

    Yikes! You make this scene so visual I can almost feel it. Have questions . . . lots of questions . . .

    The storm is so vivid. Like the others, I hope he wasn’t injured in the fall.

    What bad luck! First the rain, now the fall. He really needs to get back up there and set up camp before something else happens to him! Great snippet! I feel so bad for the poor guy! Tweeted.
