River's Edge (Unlikely Gentlemen, Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
“Use it. You’re beginning to look like a gypsy.” “Thank you, Amos.” Rather enjoying the notion of being one of the wandering Romany, she carried the medicine upstairs with her, planning on working by lamplight before she quit for the night. The ointment led her to the mirror first. “I’ll have you know, I’m not thirty yet. I’m only twenty-nine.” She studied herself as she smoothed on the cream. The mirror showed her the usual face only this time her cheeks were wind-reddened from her careening ride back to the house. She squinted noticing the fine lines edging her eyes and for a moment panic touched her. Amos is right. I’m getting old. She didn’t feel old. As a matter of fact, her willow tree encounter had left her giddy with high spirits. After wickedly spying on her new neighbor, she’d fled the cowboy who’d offered no threat. Running up the slope like a deer, she’d retrieved her bicycle, speeding toward home, giggling all the way, and trying to keep from wetting her drawers.
