This Way – #weekendwritingwarriors #paranormalromance

Posted on March 13, 2022March 12, 2022 by Kate

It’s time for the Weekend Writing Warriors blog hop in which writers share 8-10 sentences from their work.

This excerpt from Wild Witches of Beaver Bay 1: Mysti and Starr continues with Starr injured during a storm in the woods. Help is on the way.

Thank you for stopping by!

Excerpt:

“Inside where?” Starr demanded.

“My cabin. This way.” She left at a run and Starr hopped after her. Pain shot through his ankle and up his leg with every step.

The woman turned, looking frustrated, and ran back to him. “Sorry. You’re hurt. The cabin is right up there. Shit!” She jumped again when more lightning struck.

That’s 10, but if you’d like to continued, here’s a bit more:

“Go ahead,” he said. “I’ll catch up.”

“Lean on me.” She stepped closer, wedging her firm little body against his and wrapping an arm snugly around his waist. He draped his arm over her shoulder and she said, “Let’s go.”

Hopping on one foot was easier with her to steady him. Before Starr knew it, they’d reached the cabin. It was warm from the fire burning in the living room hearth. To his right was a pantry and kitchen and to his left a wooden staircase leading to a loft.

“Come and sit,” she said, slipping away from him to remove her hat and coat and hang them on a nearby hook. “I’ll get my first aid kit.”


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.

    She seems very capable of tending to his ankle.

    Nice to be out of that storm. Though it seemed to bring the two of them together.
