SUMMER’S END LAUNCHES TOMORROW!

Here is your last sneak-peek and it’s a good one.

Chapter 18 . . .

“Regan, I know you think I’m good at telling you what
I’m thinking and how I feel about you, but….” I reach my
free hand to his arm and squeeze, holding on tight, leaning
my head against him as we continue to stroll. “I’m scared
of what tomorrow brings. Worried I might fail, that I won’t
be able to handle the classes and all the people . . . afraid
of being away from home, from you, from what I know
and love….” We stop and he turns toward me. “I don’t want
tonight to end,” he chokes out.
Softly I agree, “Tonight’s been the best night of my life.”
My voice is a little rough too, and I’m tearing up. I slide
my arms up and around his shoulders. “I don’t want you to
leave.”

I greatly appreciate your help in this launch process. As always, please let your friends know about Summer’s End and share on your favorite social sites. Book two is already in the works as we continue to follow Regan’s life.

DAY 8 — COUNTDOWN TO RELEASE

DAY 8 — on our countdown to October 11, 2016, aka, Release Date for Summer’s End.

Today’s excerpt from Summer’s End . . .

“You’re scaring the fish away with all that racket and floundering around.”
“Argh!” I sit up. “I’m sorry. I can’t get comfortable.” I’m almost at my limit with fatigue.
Lane reels in his line and lays his fishing pole down on
the bank. He walks to the bench, studying my twisted and tangled clothes and hair on the way. I’m glad I changed out of that dress. He picks up the quilt and strides over to help
me up. He spreads out the quilt and rolls the towel up, “Your
pillow,” he says, handing it to me.
Arms hanging, crazy hair falling down my back, droopy
eyes, I stand watching him—dumfounded at this brilliant
simplicity. “Thanks.” A smile flits across his face, framing
the beauty hiding behind the sunglasses. I snuggle into the
quilt and allow the cicadas to lull me to sleep.

Feel free to share this on Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, etc. . . . and tune in tomorrow for more excerpts from Summer’s End.

A Teen Romance - Lullaby
Sally Henson
May 8, 2016

Sometimes life gets complicated as we are coming of

age. Regan knows about complicated.

It’s happening in her life.

Sing a lullaby

drift to unconsciousness

sing into the night

Soft background sounds

travel back in time

when I was a child

Every day was a new beginning

filled with wonder and adventure

when life seemed more simple

And the night would sing a lullaby.
