<\/a><\/center>Hello and welcome! It’s time for the Weekend Writing Warriors, in which writers share 8-10 sentences from their work.<\/p>\nThis month I’m going to share excerpts from my holiday paranormal romance Spirits of Christmas. This excerpt picks up where last week’s left off.<\/p>\n
Thank you for stopping by!<\/p>\n
Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cYou don\u2019t have to go, Miss Wild, but just to be clear, I\u2019m staying here until after Christmas.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cHey, it\u2019s your house.\u201d Strange that knowing she wouldn\u2019t be alone relieved her. <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cFine. I\u2019m going to get my suitcase.\u201d He stepped toward the front door, but paused and turned back to her. \u201cIf you tell anyone anything about my private life here, I\u2019ll feed you to sharks.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cExcuse me? With all due respect, boss, I couldn\u2019t care less about your private life. I work here. That\u2019s all, and when I say work, I mean as a maid–Nothing else.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n Spirits of Christmas<\/strong> On Christmas Eve twenty-five years ago, a brutal murder was committed at the house where Christa Wild works as a live-in maid. When the other servants leave for the holiday this year she stays behind, hoping that any spirits dwelling there will help her regain the psychic power she lost. She\u2019s surprised when the intriguing but disturbed owner of the house appears several days before Christmas.<\/p>\n Action star Joel Connor has kept a terrible secret for most of his life. Despite his success as an athlete and actor, he is plagued by flashbacks of a gruesome attack that destroyed his family. This Christmas, Joel returns to the house where it happened to face the ghosts of the past, but finds he is not alone.<\/p>\n Joel and Christa are instantly attracted, but will his psychological state prevent them from finding peace and love?<\/p>\n
