So excited to have my friend, fantastic author and fellow PARANORMAL PLUME, Tiffany King, here for the Wishing For Someday Soon BOG HOP! Catch the deets on the Hop at the end of this post!
WISHING FOR SOMEDAY SOON
Seventeen year old Katelyn Richards is a stronger person than anyone will ever know, and that is just the way she wants it. Behind her normal façade, lies the reality of a broken home life. Thanks to her abusive mother, a string of deadbeat stepfathers, and an unsympathetic system, Katelyn has learned that the only one she can count on is herself. Her life’s mission has become to shield her nine year old brother, Kevin, and to give him the future that they both wish for. A life with no more abuse, no worries about where their next meal will come from, and no more wondering if they will have a roof over their heads.
When her mother moves them again, this time to a small town in Montana, Katelyn’s resolve is shaken when she meets Max, a cute boy from her new school who gets a glimpse into her real world. Max slowly manages to break through Katelyn’s wall of distrust, stirring up feelings she never saw coming. Now with her world more complicated than she ever intended, Katelyn struggles with the decision to follow her heart into the arms of the first boy she has ever loved. A decision that could risk the promise she made to protect Kevin, and to give them the ‘someday soon’ that is so close within their grasp.
EXCERPT:
“Thanks, I appreciate it.”
“But…”
“No buts, I’m just not sure what I’ll need help with,” I answered, trying to skate around the real issue.
“No prob. It all comes easy to me.”
“Wow, cocky much?” I asked, laughing at his pretend hurt expression.
“Ha-ha. Nah, I’m not sayin I don’t have my faults. Don’t even think of asking me to make anything in the kitchen, that’s a complete disaster.”
“Ha, me too,” I laughed.
“Great, our future kids will starve,” he said, grinning at me.
“Guess that means marriage is out,” I joked.
“No way, we’ll just hire a cook or order out,” he said, finding a solution to a moot point.
“Genius,” I said, still bantering as we took our seats back in Mr. Graves’s class.
“So, what are your plans this weekend?” he asked just before Mr. Graves could start in on our science experiment.
“Unpacking,” I lied, sidestepping what he was really asking.
“The whole weekend?” he persisted.
“Yeah…” I was cut off as Mr. Graves called our attention to the front of the room.
