7/10/2015 25 Comments Fourteen Line FridayWelcome to Fourteen Line Friday! Share fourteen lines of your favorite lines. The rules: 1. In the comments section post fourteen lines from a current work in progress, a new release, a soon-to-be-released, or a novel that you published ages ago. All I ask is that you try to keep it as close to fourteen sentences as possible. 2. Post those buy links! If a reader loves your lines we want them to be able to find your book! 3. This is for clean/sweet/inspirational reads only. I like having a family friendly blog. :) Now to my own lines. They come from Francesca, The Board, book nine, and are a little more whimsical than I normally post. Psst...This novella was just released this week! Buy Link: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B010TJ28II Four ladies arrayed in Victorian gowns sashayed from behind the curtain. One carried a jug, another a cowbell, another a tall board with strings, and lastly Francesca, who took a seat at the high-backed piano already on the stage. Props, like a washtub and a spittoon, were nearby. What could the ladies possibly be planning to do with that junk? Mrs. Hawkins stepped on stage. "I'd like to introduce Harley on the jug, Jennifer on the bell, Sherry on the strings, and Francesca on the piano. Put your hands together and welcome the Hawkins' Girls." Harley blew above the jug then Sherry strummed. Jennifer came in behind ringing her bell. Francesca was last. She artfully weaved her music with the other noise. Harley dropped the jug and ran to the washtub. She scrubbed up and down a washboard. Sherry rushed to the spittoon and dribbled water into the container. Andrew couldn't believe that music actually came from the chaos. Now your turn to show me what you got!

Taisie took a deep breath and dove in, breaking through the water cleanly. The further down she went, the colder the water and at a sudden shiver, she rose back to the surface and flipped onto her back, letting her arms and legs splay out and float. She lifted her right hand to her face, looking at the sparkle of the silicon from the water on her skin reflected by the sunlight. It would gradually dry and fall off her skin, but the small pieces of mica would stay on her clothes and in her hair. She wouldn’t be able to wash it off until she got home tomorrow. Well, maybe she’d hike back down tonight if Conn didn’t show up before sundown. She had the flashlight if it got dark and she could take a quick shower at the farm and then stop at his cottage.

“My darling Chelsea, earlier you said as long as you’re with me you’d be safe. This is one of those moments. If you don’t wish to continue to the pavilion I completely understand, we don’t have to,” he whispered into her ear.

Anne was bent over her first handkerchief, crying as she trudged along, so bent that she could not see where she was going and ran right into the back of Mr. Gabriel Hughes. She did not apologize, not having even noticed plowing into him, knocking him into a pillar and nearly into the area below stairs. She raised her voice to her mistress.
