Promises To Keep. Shirley Hailstock

Чтение книги онлайн.

      His arm around her was sure and strong.

      McKenna had forgotten what it felt like for a man to hold her. Emotions she’d buried suddenly surfaced like a strong gust of wind that sweeps around a corner and takes you by surprise.

      She went up on her toes, joining him in the kiss. It seemed to go on forever.

      Parker released her. He stepped back, moving out of her personal space. His stare was steady and direct as she looked up at him. “I’m not going to apologize,” he said. “I’m not sorry.”

      McKenna couldn’t speak. Her lip trembled from contact with his. Was she sorry? She didn’t know. She’d never expected Parker to kiss her. She’d never expected to enjoy it. But she had. She should be ready to date again, to find someone she could spend her life with.

      But Parker?

      He wasn’t that man. Parker Fordum was the last man on earth that she could have any kind of relationship with.

      Dear Reader,

      Driving Route 66 from end to end has been a goal of mine since I was first enthralled by the exploits of the two fictional characters from the television program Route 66. (I was also intrigued by the car.) Writing is a way of getting to safely do all of the things you can imagine. And so I gave my adventure to McKenna and Parker.

      In researching this book, I watched some of the old television episodes from Route 66. Just as Parker has done in my book, I was rediscovering the road and the stories encountered and especially the people that make life interesting. I hope you enjoy Promises to Keep and that you will have your own adventure.

      As always, keep reading,

      Shirley
