Another Hump Day Hook!
I’m going back to Masked Hearts today.
Minnie and Roy are talking about her tribe, and he has some very particular questions for her:
“That fur trapper.” He had to force the words out. The cracking in his voice so unusual it drew Minnie’s intense gaze back to him. “Did he and the woman have a child? A son?”
Her brows drew together, a frown creasing her lips down. “Yes.”
“Was he taken away?”

Ooooh! So short, but so much in there! Is this the abused child they speak of?
You can’t stop there. There is so much I need to know. In other words I’m hooked
You grabbed with that short-and-sweet snippet and I was upset I couldn’t read what happened next!
Interesting set up. There aren’t enough stories set in the earlies. 🙂
Oh, wow, I can feel the lump in his throat at the importance of this question.
Oh, that’s a fabulous hook! I want to know the answer, and why he want to know. 🙂
Very interesting. Nice hook!
