I am very happy to announce that the ebook version of Surrogate: Hunted is now available for pre-order on Amazon! Take a moment to reserve your copy, but, until the release, you can continue to enjoy snippets here every Saturday.
And, did I say Saturday? Yes, I did, so that means it’s time for another #Rainbowsnippets!
The Rainbow Snippets group on Facebook is “for LGBTQ+ authors, readers, and bloggers to gather once a week to share six sentences from a work of fiction– a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation. (no spoilers please!)”
Here’s another #RainbowSnippet* from Surrogate: Hunted.
A Gentle Reminder: While Surrogate: Hunted is LGBTQIA Sci-Fi with bisexual content, Etain is the forty-four-year-old mother of five children and is seventeen-year-old Brigit’s godmother. They’re relationship is mother-daughter in nature, so please don’t think otherwise.
The Setup: Etain has partially recovered from her injuries, but is now dismayed to discover that the transportation she and Brigit have been shoved into might well be taking them somewhere even deadlier than where they’ve been.
Brigit speaks first in this snippet.
“What’re we riding in?”
What a horrifying predicament. 😟

It’s the unknown here that’s terrifying in my eyes.

*shudder* Everything about this scene gives me chills. But really, if I had to be in such a horrible situation, Etain’s the only one I’d feel secure with.

Yeah, I’d want to be with her too. She’s good at finding a way out.

Yeah, nah, definitely getting that “nope” vibe. Not sure if I want to know what’s outside.

What’s outside is definitely better than what’s in that compartment with them. *shivers*

I once had a writing instructor tell me to put my protagonists into the worse situation I can possibly think of but one where they still might get out of alive. I’ve stuck to that notion for years now, but things are about to turn around, at least to a degree.

Gruesome. Brigit seems to be taking it fairly calmly, though.

I think Brigit has grown numb to it all at this point.
