An Excerpt

Book 5 in the Encounters of the Hearts series


The sound of screeching tires told her Larry was home.


Rozene rushed to the bedroom window and burrowed her head through the drapes to get a view of the courtyard. She was just in time to see Larry slam the door of his red Audi coupe, and sprint towards the steps leading to the front door.


She harrumphed, clutching the drapes as a fresh wave of trepidation engulfed her heart. He’d all but driven his car into the house, braking just before he would hit the steps.


Wumpth. The grand double door slammed, and it felt like the entire house shook.


A matching thud landed in her heart.


“Roz!” Larry bellowed. “Roz!”


“Oh God!” Rozene choked out.


By the sound of his voice, she knew he was running through the living room.


She raced to the bedroom door and cracked it, so she would know when he was nearby. Then, she dropped to her knees at the bedside.


Seconds ticked by, then she heard sounds as Larry marched his way down the passageway to access their bedroom.


He yelled her name again, but she didn’t respond.


The bedroom door gave way with a bang against the wall.


Her heart jolted.


It was time.
