Some Kind Of Wonderful: A Holiday Novella (The Cupcake Lovers) - Plot & Excerpts
That he cherished Maya’s friendship too much to screw it up on the off chance that they might click in bed. But as the evening wore on his resolve crumbled. Scents from the delicious dinner Maya had whipped up lingered and mingled with the smell of pine wafting from a lone candle and the pleasing aroma of burning wood. While she’d cooked, Maya had hummed and sung Christmas songs, an old-fashioned form of entertainment that had moved Zach deeply as he’d toured around Marx’s cabin, acquainting himself with the grump of Franklin County via random pictures and keepsakes. Marx was an army man. A veteran of Vietnam. And near as Zach could tell, Marx had never married. No evidence of a wife or children, ever. Just photos with a few fellow soldiers and a hunting buddy or two. Marx struck Zach as a loner. A man who dwelled in the past. Was he shackled to the war by personal demons? Mentally and emotionally incapable of letting go and moving on? Had he even tried to fit into civilian life?
