Sipping
a glass of ice water while I waited, I looked forward to seeing
Chloe. We’d been co-workers and friends for years.
When
Chloe walks in, I watch as all the men’s heads turn to stare as she
approached our table. Her beauty always drew gazes and left me
feeling like a weed planted next to a stunning flower.
After
Chloe and I make a bit of small talk and order, I ask the question
I’ve been dying to ask since I ended our phone call. “What is
going on, Chloe? What can I do to help?”
“Mike’s
quit his job at the college and decided to open his own catering
business and the stress of having no money coming in is taking its
toll on us. All we do is fight. I can’t stand that I have no say in
how our money is spent. Would you believe he bought a delivery truck
for his business but hasn’t even gotten the brakes fixed on my
car?”
“I’m
sorry, Chloe. What does Mike say when you talk to him about this?”
“He
really doesn’t understand. He has stars in his eyes about what the
future holds and can’t see what’s happening right in front of his
face. My salary is the only thing paying the bills. With the way
Mike’s spending money, it’s going out as fast as it’s coming
in. You know, Lissa. You’re so lucky to have Alex. He’s a
wonderful provider. What I wouldn’t give to have him back in my
life.”
Ouch.
Chloe’s words hurt. I knew Alex was a wonderful husband, but he was
mine now. Was she really indicating she wanted him back?
“Alex
is a fabulous husband, father, and friend. I’m lucky to be his
wife.” Needing to establish my territory, I made sure to
point out Alex was mine.
“Yes,
he is. I’d give anything to have him back. Just to make it clear,
if you ever hurt him or let him go, I’m going to be right there to
pick up the pieces. After all, we have a child together. We’ll
always be in each other’s lives.”
“Well,
Alex is very happy and I’ll do anything to keep him that way.”
The
rest of lunch passed in a blur. I couldn’t keep my mind off her
ultimatum. Maybe Chloe was just reacting to all the problems in her
own marriage by lashing out at me. I was willing to give her the
benefit of doubt. However, all I wanted to do was to escape the
original lunch from hell and get home to Alex to reassure myself of
his love. For
me.
**GIVEAWAY**
Prize
is a $10 Amazon Gift Card
Danger,
Will Robinson! That is what keeps going through my head. I think she
is going to have a bit of an issue with the "ex", yes? I
gather from the excerpt that this book is written in first person
point-of-view. What do you all think of reading in that POV? DO you
prefer it, or is it not something you enjoy? And how about the blurb
and excerpt. Sounds like there is a bit of suspense in this one. Does
it sound like something you will be reading in the future? Why or why
not? Your comments are always welcome. I enjoy reading your thoughts
so please feel free to leave feedback below.

Thank you for having me on your site! There is a lot of drama in this story. :) <3 Who doesn't have issues with ex's?
ReplyDeleteThankfully, me. But I have plenty of friends who do and it is seldom a desirable situation. Thanks so much for being here today! I enjoyed my time spent getting to know you!
DeleteThank you! And you are lucky without the ex drama. :)
