#WeWriWa Lost Time - Teaser 2 #timetravel #8Sunday

Weekend Writing Warriors  



Here's another 10 from one of my old favourites,  Lost Time, an erotic time-travel romance. (published January 2013) When we left Hannah, she was on a bus headed for Wales cursing her friend who stood her up...

Excerpt:

Hannah had read everything she could get her greedy little hands on, whether it be a history book or a historical romance novel or the old books her mum had brought over. She’d always been enamoured with anything English—the monarchy, the castles, and the history— while Scotland and Ireland held their own share of legend and lore that lured her imagination. Her mother had made everything sound so romantic, and now that her mum was gone, Hannah needed to see where her mother had come from.  

The plan had always been to see the UK with her mum, but when her mother got sick, everything had changed. But she had made Hannah promise that she would still take the trip.

That was when her best friend Cassie had stepped in to take her mother’s place. And it hadn’t hurt that Cassie had just seen 300, starring Gerard Butler. After that, Cass was convinced that every other guy in the UK might possibly look like Gerard, and she was all in.  

At least Hannah'd thought she was all in. But as she’d stood in line at the airport, with images of old stone castles and moors in bloom, rowdy pubs and Stonehenge running through her overly-excited mind, waiting for her BFF to show, the last thing she’d expected was for her cell phone ring and have her FBFF—former best friend forever—abandon her. Although Cassie had attempted to apologise enthusiastically, it would be a cold day when Hannah accepted it.

  1. Trips in foreign countries aren't nearly as much fun alone, are they? Nonetheless, I expect something will happen to brighten her journey. ;-)

  2. Oooh, very interesting snippet and even MORE interesting premise. What would you do to set someone you love free? And what would it cost you? Very interested to see where this goes. Thank you so much for sharing!

  3. Poor Hannah! It's bad enough she can't experience the UK with her mum as planned, but getting dumped by the best friend while waiting at the airport doubly sucks! I expect she will still find adventure. Look forward to reading more!

  4. Great premise--and wonderful snippet. What an adventure she's boldly setting off for. Even if it is sheer stubbornness driving her.

  5. Interested in reading what happens next. Rough luck to lose her Mum and then have her BFF (sorry, her former BFF) let her down like that. Thanks for posting.
