Better Left Unsaid Wednesday!


Our Wednesday meme highlights those thought bubbles over our characters' heads. Do they say one thing and think another? Do they inwardly muse, ponder, laugh, fret, jeer, doubt, rage etc?

In comments, and in 300 words or less, give us a snippet from your novel that describes what your heroes, heroines, or bit players are thinking. If you are unable to post thoughts in italics, wrap their thoughts with *   * so they're easy to spot. Don't forget your buy link and website/blog link. Have fun!

ready-to-go tweet:

Come see my snippet on Exquisite Quills' Better Left Unsaid Wednesday!

From A Child’s Heart (A River City Novel) by E. Ayers

Trent, a young widower, is playing checkers with his young son who is awaiting major heart surgery. Trent's fallen in love with Cassie. But with a son and living with his mom, dating Cassie isn't easy, especially when his mom isn't thrilled with his relationship with Cassie because Cassie's older than Trent. Gotta love kids, they always tell the truth!

“Are you going to marry Cassie?” Shawn asked.
“Do you think because we kiss that we’re going to get married?”
“Well, you wouldn’t kiss her if you didn’t love her, right?”
Trent stifled his desire to laugh at his son. “Right. We might. We’ve talked about it, but we haven’t made any decisions.”
“Grandmom says Cassie wouldn’t be my mother. She’d be my step-mother.”
***Oh great! I don't need Mom interfering.*** “True. What else did Grandmom say about Cassie?”
Shawn shrugged.
“Come on, spit it out.”
“She said God was going to punish you because you were walking down the garden path. But I told Grandmom that you weren’t in any garden, just on the beach.”
