It’s #bookqw and Annmar abhors this ‘building’ & it’s owner. More from Chapter 1 of The Unraveling: “My word,” Polly muttered, “I haven’t heard language such as that since leaving the countryside. Your employer has some gall sending you to see a client here.” “Mrs. Rennet’s decisions are greased by gold.” At the lift of […]
It’s #BookQW and Daeryn calls out his ‘genius’ friend. More from Chapter 17 of The Twisting: Daeryn crossed to the slow-moving Harvester. Master Brightwell paced behind it at the control panel with Mary Beth beside him. A crowd of growers, including Henry, surrounded them. Rivley met him, and Daeryn explained about the fence access. The […]
It’s #BookQW and Daeryn & Annmar are ‘unable’ to do anything to help. Briefly more (trying to avoid spoilers!) from The Twisting chapter 21: Daeryn was ready for things to be different. “Sylvan is gone. It’s taken me years to acknowledge it.” “It’s—oh.” Annmar stiffened next to him. “This is what you tried to tell […]
It’s #bookqw and Daeryn can’t afford to ‘fail.’ More from Chapter 5: Daeryn’s innards froze. Miz Gere had no idea what she was asking. To again be in charge of a pack—a team—after what had happened at OverEdge— “What?” Jac snapped. He forced his ’cambire form not to respond to the agitation spreading from the […]
It’s #bookqw and ‘since’ Daeryn is obsessed with the new girl… More from Chapter 12 with Daeryn: Speaking of Terrent’s Forestridge origins, Daeryn ought to pick the boy’s brain for something to discuss with the new girl, since Outside was a mystery to him. “What was it like for Annmar coming into the Basin from […]
It’s #bookqw and Annmar’s new boss is ‘dressed’ outside the usual Victorian norms. More from The Unraveling: “Hello there,” called a woman behind her. Annmar turned, her hand rising to swipe back her escaped curls. A woman strode along an avenue created by rows of fruit trees. She was tall, her lean figure dressed in […]
It’s #bookqw and Annmar looks forward to a new ‘deal’ in her life. More from Chapter 18: Mistress Gere ushered her into the house, but paused at the door to the sickroom. “I feel I owe Daeryn an apology,” she murmured. “No,” Annmar blurted. She had to urge Mistress Gere down the hall, away from […]
It’s #bookqw and the ‘night’ has been too exciting. More from Chapter 14: It was late, later than she should expect breakfast. Annmar entered a screened, postage-stamp landing crowded with crates of vegetables. The inner door flew open and Mary Clare stuck her head out. “About time.” She gestured enthusiastically. “Get in here and give […]
It’s #bookqw and the farm owner ‘pauses’ to be heard. More from Chapter 5: Daeryn’s innards froze. Miz Gere had no idea what she was asking. To again be in charge of a pack—a team—after what had happened at OverEdge— “What?” Jac snapped. He forced his ’cambire form not to respond to the agitation spreading […]
It’s #bookqw and I see my hero using that ‘fist’ for control more than fights. More from Daeryn in Chapter 13: (Note, Jac is Daeryn’s coworker and competition, not the heroine!) Daeryn looked up at Jac. “With over half the team out, what is there to do?” Her eyes narrowed, studying him. Maybe looking like […]
