"Faith, Love and Fried Chicken"(Kindle Edition)byLaura J MarshallABOUT THE BOOKExcitement. That's what Jaycee has been saving for since high school. With plans to leave rural Twain, Georgia, the "to where" and the "to what" have been the only questions stopping her. Will her intentions change when Dash Matheson pulls her wandering heart in his direction? Feel the summer heat of the Fourth of July in this southern series as Jaycee finds love.Volume I, Summer of a four part serial novel under the Faith, Love, and Fried Chicken title.Volume II, Fall coming October 2013.Volume III, Winter coming December 2013.Volume IV, Spring coming March 2014.---Marlene caught Dash eyeing Jaycee. Wiping the spot next to him, she slid a fresh paper placemat and napkin-wrapped silverware in front of the empty stool."Never gonna happen." He smiled confidently, a plan forming in his head. Turning to face the counter, he gave her a winning smile, "It's only a matter of fried chicken." Marlene smiled at his answer, then raised an eyebrow."What's only a matter of fried chicken?" Jaycee repeated. She came to stand near Dash with her hand on her hip.He took a long pull on the pop and braced his two hands against the counter, turning and leaning over in his stool so his eyes were level with Jaycee's."You and me," he said slowly, letting his lips roll over the words as they carried to her on a breath and sank against the softness of her cheeks. Her beautiful light-green eyes narrowed and her full lashes fell in quick succession as she blinked rapidly.  "Y-you and me? And fried chicken?""That's right, darlin'." "Don't you darlin' me, Dash. I know what comes after your 'darlin'. Sure enough, I'm in  your sights, but I'm leaving this town, not stayin' and settin' up a Mom and Pop with you."Marlene had wandered away once she saw Jaycee's temper flare. Jaycee was but three inches from his face. His gaze lazed on her lips and then swiftly found her eyes again. "Don't let the future overwhelm the moment," he whispered quietly. He reached for her hand, just running his thumb across the top of it and then let it go.Sweet story filled with believable and loveable characters. Was surprised by the way this turned into a sweet book to read! Was nice to see it was not going to be predictable!Enjoyed reading!Would recommend to anyone who enjoys reading wonderful stories!!!!!!!Life isn't a fairy tale. It can be heart-wrenching and painful. Difficult times come to us all and many times they shape who we are and how we look at the world. We can find strength through the valleys as we learn to climb the mountains. I have been truly blessed despite and through the tough times of my life. I write both nonfiction and fiction. It is my deepest hope that within the pages of my romantic suspense books, that they will whisk you away to far lands such as to a mouse -laden castle in 17th century England or to a colorful bazaar with curry-laden dishes in the afternoon heat of India. In my Battle Cry Devotional series, I pray the shared experiences of being women and mothers, along with scriptures from the Bible and God's guidance will refresh your souls. Wherever we find ourselves on our adventures, may you feel closer to the Lord and His abiding love.....and find strength for the journey.Visit me at [...]or at my blog [...]Also Available on Nook at Barnes & Noble:Faith, Love, and Fried Chicken On Nook
