He sits down and mam places a bowl in front of him. “I gave it to her.”
My heart leaps. He really found her. “I think she’ll be there.” His smile has hope blossoming inside me.
***
Gage had told me the truth. She is here. Flesh and Bones. Right in front of me. Her hair is loose and wild, as the wind lifts the brown strands and throws them in every direction. She has her trousers rolled up, the waves crashing against her legs. There is peace in her stance. She has her arms outstretched like she is standing in front of something majestic. I glance out at the raging water and I suppose it is, but nothing is as powerful as Scarlett. I take off my boots and roll up my jeans. Each step makes me feel unworthy of her. The closer I get, the more I want to pause and watch her.
“It’s beautiful,” I say, as something in me breaks when she stiffens at my voice. I want to touch her. I want my Scarlett back.
“You’re beautiful.” I continue and right now all I can think of is, I found her. I found Scarlett amongst the waves and this time I will never let her go.
THE END

About The Author
Enjoy this book? You can make a big difference
Reviews are the most powerful tools in my arsenal when it comes to getting attention for my books. Much as I’d like to, I don’t have the financial muscle of a New York publisher.
(Not yet, anyway.)
But I do have something much more powerful and effective than that, and it’s something that those publishers would kill to get their hands on.
A committed and loyal bunch of readers.
Honest reviews of my book help bring them to the attention of other readers.
So if you’ve enjoyed this book I would be very grateful if you could spend just five minutes leaving a review.
Thank you very much!
