A touch on her shoulder drew her from deep reverie and caused her to gasp. She turned, and still unable to exhale, came face-to-face with the most attractive brave she’d ever seen.

“Hau, I too come for water.” He extended a pouch identical to those she carried.
Releasing her pent up breath, she let go of the tension his touch raised. “I was deep in thought, and you...you startled me.” Her gaze remained locked with his–eyes capable of casting fear in an enemy, yet softened by his smile.

“Mitakuyepi…my name is Yellow Moon. I am so called for the season when the leaves fall.”

ReplyDeleteIt would seem some of the links for the list haven't turned up a new Sunday Snippit (or I'm too early this morning. ;) )
Amber's doesn't link to her blog but her email address (and she didn't have a post up for today when I went to her blog)
Ginger, We do love our westerns! Great title and cover.
ReplyDeleteI love your six! Your use of the native language--though far beyond me--adds such depth. I can't wait to read more. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd, as always, thanks for hosting.
What a fabulous cover--and the title is beautiful, too!
