Today's guest has a very special excerpt to share with you. Make welcome, the amazing, Tamara Hoffa. Please leave her a comment.
BIO:Tamara Hoffa lives in central Tennessee, with her husband of 30 years, her three grown children, two grandchildren, 3 dogs and 2 cats. Tamara started reading when she was four years old and has rarely been seen without a book at hand since. At home you will usually find her in “nana’s chair” with her kindle, her laptop or one of her precious, precocious grandson’s in her lap. Tamara is a reviewer, a professional reader and can now add author to her repertoire. Tamara is proof positive that it’s never too late to reach for your dreams.
EXCERPT:Charlie and Bethany “dish”
“Slow your roll girl! One question at a time.
No, I didn’t manage to
talk Evan out of joining up. But, I did get a lot of information. More than I’ve been able to process yet. The recruiter
was…”
Charlie hesitated and smiled.
Bethany rolled her eyes.
“Oh, man I know that look. The recruiter was
hot. Right? Oh boy. Is he single? Did sparks fly? Do you have another meeting?”
Charlie laughed.
“Do you ever take a breath, girl? Yes, he was
hot. Leroy Jethro Gibbs combined with a little Harrison Ford. Tall, dark,
handsome…and I bet you
could wash clothes on his abs, yum. He appears to be single, no ring anyway,
and he asked me out. So I certainly hope he’s single.” Bethany squealed; there was no other word
for that sound.
“Seriously? Did you say yes? Mrs. I haven’t been on a date since Clinton was in the White house.”
Charlie’s mouth turned down at the corners.
“You make it sound like a crime. I was happily
married for thirteen years, Bethany. Phillip and I went on dates all the time.” Charlie knew she sounded defensive, but she
had loved her husband. Was it so wrong that she hadn’t jumped right back into the dating world
after Phillip’s death? She
had thought they would be together forever. They were soul mates. It wasn’t that easy to let go. But, Phillip was gone,
and she was so alone. She lay in that big bed every night, wishing there was
someone to hold her, to make her feel safe, secure…loved. Tears pooled in her eyes, but she
refused to let them fall. Charlie tried to smile, but knew she failed.
“I’m sorry baby. I didn’t mean to make you upset.” Bethany grabbed her hand and gave it a
squeeze, “But, you know I’ve been telling you for months that you need
to get out there and meet someone. You’re still young. Your life isn’t over just because Phillip is gone. He
wouldn’t want you to
be alone either. You know I’m right.”
“I know Bethany, I know. And believe it or
not, I did say yes. But, I can’t say I’m not having second thoughts. There is
definitely a physical attraction there and I haven’t felt that for anyone since Phillip…but, with this thing with Evan I’m just not sure if it’s the right time.”
