Finding
Flight
By: Heather M. Sharpe
Can
her gift help her find an everlasting love?
Blurb:
As an Enforcer for a secret society of shapeshifters,
Ledger Arneau is offered a chance to retrieve his wayward brother before The
Council puts out a warrant for his arrest. When the trail goes cold, he is
willing to try anything to pick it up again, even if it means bringing in an
outsider.
Corinne Winters is able to find any missing object,
except her own, by concentrating on it. She’s always dreamed of using her
skills to help locate missing people. After an embarrassing setback with the
local police department, she jumps on the opportunity to use her skills to help
Ledger.
Corinne finds a love she didn’t know she was looking
for with Ledger, and discovers a new depth to her talent when they are
together. When her new love and his brother disappear back into the secret
society, Corinne must stretch her talent beyond anything she ever imagined to
bring them home. Unaware of the circumstances surrounding Ledger’s
disappearance, Corinne races across the country on his trail. When she finally
locates the brothers, she witnesses the unbelievable, and flees in terror. In order
to claim the love of her life, she must find a way to accept him and his
secret.
Excerpt:
“Are you going to stand
there all night, or are you going to let me out?” Corinne called while tapping
lightly on the glass behind him.
Ledger pushed his worries
to the back of his mind and reluctantly straightened from the side of the car.
Despite his new worry about Cedric catching up with them, he couldn’t drive any
farther tonight. After a few hours of sleep, he’d be refreshed, and they could
pick up the trail bright and early in the morning.
He turned to open the door
and helped Corinne straighten from the seat. Stretching her arms above her
head, Corinne breathed, “Hmm…I think that’s the longest car ride I’ve ever had.
What are our room numbers?”
“Two-thirteen. We’re
leaving early in the morning again, so what do you need me to carry in for you?
The less we take in now, the less we’ll have to bring back out in the morning.”
Ledger turned from Corinne and headed toward the trunk without glancing back.
“What do you mean we’re in
two-thirteen? You only got one room?”
“Yeah. Don’t worry, there
are two beds. We won’t be here for more than a few hours, anyway. As soon as
I’ve caught some sleep, we’ll be back on the road again.”
“I’m not sharing a room
with you! What if I snore? You’ve been up since who knows when; I’d hate to
keep you awake!” Corinne grabbed her phone out of the cup holder and slammed
the door.
“You snore? I never would
have guessed. Don’t worry, I’ll sleep through it.”
“I don’t snore.”
“Sure.” He snorted. She
was so fun to tease.
“I said what if I
snore, not that I do snore. Anyway, that’s beside the point. You need
to go get
another room.” Corinne followed him to the trunk of the car and stood with her
hands on her hips.
She was close enough that
his keen hearing picked up the elevation in her heart rate, and the blush
starting at the base of her throat beckoned him. She did want two rooms, but it
appeared that the thought of sharing a room excited her in spite of herself.
“Sorry, princess. One room.
I’m going up to get some sleep. You can stay here with the car if you really
want to. I’ll be back in about six hours.”
Bio:
Heather M. Sharpe lives on 6 acres in Central Kansas
with her husband, perfect baby boy, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law. In case
the house isn’t full enough, it also includes four noisy dogs, one cat who
inspired For the love of a Sphynx, another who torments him, and a
lizard. At night, all of them think they
need room on the bed (except the lizard, thankfully).
Up until the birth of her son, Heather taught
elementary school. Now she chases around
her toddler and writes whenever he naps long enough to turn on the laptop. When not writing or chasing the baby, Heather
enjoys hanging at the lake, waking up early to tear up the water on the
wakeboard or wakesurf board, and making s’mores.
