Today's Wednesday Wonder features guest author Elaine Cantrell and her paranormal mystery novel, REST THY HEAD.About the Book:
Running away from a fiancé who betrayed her, Peyton O’Malley finds employment at a beautiful mountain inn called Rest Thy Head. She didn’t expect to live in the haunted room or to fall for the inn’s owner, a fire-scarred, war veteran who uses the inn to hide away from the world. She didn’t expect her sister to show up at Rest Thy Head either, much less her formidable mother.
Now, thanks to the aid of a friendly ghost, Peyton has a shot at true love, and so does her sister Ashley, provided the guys cooperate of course!
(This
is the first meeting of my hero and heroine.)
She
entered the barn, a big white structure with a center aisle and stalls on either
side. Just inside the door she saw a dark-haired man dressed in jeans and a
long-sleeved, plaid shirt brushing a pretty chestnut mare.
“Hi,”
she called.
The
man half turned toward her; wow, he had blue eyes to die for. The blue was so
intense that it reminded her of a blue diamond she’d seen at the jewelry store.
Oh, and look at those shoulders. If there was one thing she loved, it was a
pair of nice shoulders. Yummy. He was just yummy.
“Yeah?”
he asked, his voice abrupt and snappy.
“I’m
Peyton O’Malley. I’m supposed to meet Patrick for a ride.”
“He
isn’t here yet. You can sit on the bench under that tree outside and wait for
him there.”
Instead
of leaving the barn, Peyton stepped toward the man. “What a beautiful ...
horse.”
The
man quickly averted his face, but Peyton had seen the dreadful red scars that
covered the entire left side of his face. They looked like burns.
“I
told you to wait outside,” he growled, scowling at her with the good side of
his face. “Get moving.”
