Nick’s face appeared above her, blocking the stars. “Are you going to pass out?”
She laughed and sat back up, nearly bowling him over. “No. Are you?”
He stared at her for a long time. “I think I already did.”
“Well, stop looking at me and look up. We’re here because I promised Pops I’d come here now and again to get my head straight.”
“That will take a lot of visits,” he quipped, then leaned back on his elbows.
“It’s a good thing you’re a guest and I have to be polite to you,” she said.
But Nick had gone quiet, his eyes on the stars.
“Amazing isn’t it?” she said.
He made a noise of assent.
“You should see this meadow in early summer when the rest of the stars show up.”
Nick looked at her. “The rest of the stars?”
“The ones that fly,” Grace said, smiling at the memory. “Pops caught me coming in one summer evening with a mason jar absolutely full of fireflies. I had punched holes in the top and felt as if I had my own personal lantern. I’m sure the fireflies felt differently about it.”
“Did your Pops tell you to let them go?”
“Pops never told us to do anything. Pops told stories. We had to figure out what they meant.”
Meet Donna
My name is DONNA JUNE COOPER and my debut novel, More Than Magic, has just been published this month by Samhain Publishing. I write contemporary paranormal romance with a very subdued and special magic and a definite emphasis on the romance. More Than Magic is the first book in the Books of the Kindling which focus on Woodruff Mountain, the ancient power beneath it, and the family that has hidden its secrets for centuries.
I love being walked by my Jack Russell Terrier (if you know Jacks, you understand). I also love belly dancing (excellent exercise and lots of shiny costumes), going to Renaissance Faires (more costumes!), reading way too much (romance, of course), spending time on too many social networking sites, and writing, writing, writing because I must!
