Indie-licious teaser ~ Late as usual....

A little late, but better late than never. To go with my teaser this week, I"m sharing my working cover. I have an artist more talented than myself working on hte one I really want, but until he finishes it, I'm using this one.... And obviously, the teaser comes from the new book, too.

I fidgeted, biting my lip as I tried to figure out how to tell them. “Antonio’s in the hospital.”

They gasped, exchanging wide-eyed glances. Charlotte found her voice first. “Is he going to be ok?”

I choked back a sob that was trying to escape. “They aren’t sure. The doctor said they were optimistic. What does that even mean?”

Violet patted my hand. “Well, honey, it means they think he’ll be fine but they can’t say so because—”

“I know what it means!” I roared, cutting her off. She recoiled and guilt washed over me. “I’m sorry Vi, you didn’t deserve that.”

“It’s ok, honey, you have every right to be emotional.”

I flopped into a chair, putting my head into my hands. “Being emotional is what got me into this mess.”
