An excerpt from The Lightning-Struck Wood:
Gayle worked her way around to Paul and squeezed tight enough that his spine crackled. He relaxed into her warmth and strength and soothing lavender fragrance.
Almost like one final, much-needed hug from Sadie.
“I know you've lived up here for a long damn time,” Gayle said, “and I still say I don't like you spending tonight alone. One of us can stay, or better yet, you grab your toothbrush and go on a little vacation with us. The gods know you've earned it.”
Paul shook his head before she let go, and her rueful smile let him know she wasn't surprised.
“I appreciate the thought and the invitation, I really do. But this is one of those saying goodbye things, you know? Gotta take my chance to visit with Sadie's spirit while I can.”
