Hump Day Hook 40 – Deep Fried Sweethearts #HDH

MikeyAnother Hump Day Hook!

I’ve started a new book. It’s part of my Lake Point series and contracted for Valentine’s day 2014.

For this week – I’m introducing Michaela O’Keefe, a 31-year-old divorcee who has spent the 5 years since the divorce rebuilding her life.  Unfortunately, her ex just blew into town:

“I thought you’d be happy to see me.”

“You thought wrong. I was happy when you left town with your latest flavor of the month three years ago.” She leaned on the desk. “We’re divorced. You’re not welcome in my home, and not in my business, either.”

“Public place, baby. I can come and go as I want.”

Hump Day Hook asks authors to post one paragraph of one of their stories, whether a WIP, one contracted, or already published.  Please visit and comment on the participants – you might just stumble on the next great read for your library!  To see more participants, click on the HDH banner below:

    OMG he needs a little of his own medicine back! I hope she deserves a little of her own brand of justice, and that we see it 😀
