It’s cloudy here in Atlanta, and not too warm. I love it!
Here’s another snippet from “Unexpected Journey” published by MLR Press. It follows last week’s excerpt. (John–first person)

Hollis watched me, but I couldn’t read the expression on his face, though I had a hard enough time focusing since I was
starting to see double.
We made it back to the motel much later, Hollis practically dragging me to the room since I was unsteady on my feet, and
then he tucked me into bed.
“Wish I could do this with you every night,” I murmured, and drifted off to sleep. I thought I heard Hollis’s breath hitch, but I was soon lost to the world.
The [next] morning sun was bright. Too bright. I sat up in bed, still in my clothes from the evening before. My head was pounding and my mouth tasted nasty. I almost thought I was back in my condo in Kansas, the situation was so familiar. But then I remembered I was on a spur-of-the-moment road trip, with the sexiest, kindest man I’d ever met.
What the hell had I done last night?

Oh dear. What a waste of a night, lol.
Right? ROFL
Ah that moment of waking up unsure of what you did the night before.
Fun, isn’t it?
What did he do?
He drank too much 🙂
I can’t wait to find out what he did do last night 😉
Hehe. Last week’s snippet gives a synopsis. 🙂
Ohhhhh, boy. Yeah, he definitely needs to find out what he’s done, LOL. My guess: More than he’s hoping but less than he could have.
Agreed.
The last sentence was perfect…😊
Thank you 🙂
Uh oh. He should check social media just in case. lol Great snippet, J.D.
Bahahaha… maybe he should! Thanks 🙂
Not nearly as much as he wishes he had?
Probably.
