Between The Spark And The Burn (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
And him. We had all come up from the city to celebrate Rose Redding’s sixteenth birthday. Chester and Clara Glenship were her godparents, and she helped fill the hole that their poor broken-necked daughter Alexandra left when she fell from the tree house. The sky on Rose’s birthday was blue and clear. A perfect day for a perfect girl. She was apple-cheeked and chestnut-curled and innocent as one of the round brown puppies in the barn. I knew. I knew when Chase gave her that book of naughty French poetry for a present and she smiled up at him like he was God. I knew what he’d done. Will figured it out later, when he found Rose in Chase’s bed. Chase was a fine match for me, in Will’s mind. Daring, worldly, flashy Freddie. I could have handled him. But not Rose. Rose was the kind of girl to fall in love once, and forever. Chase and “forever” didn’t mix. I crawled into Will’s arms that night, as I’d done so many nights before.
