Something about a waterfall entranced her... SHE BELONGS TO ME

One of the things I love about writing is sharing my love for the great outdoors. Here’s just a sample.


They descended the path faster than their ascent. Jaynee had to move fast to keep his tempo, but finally Jordan slowed his pace. Could they have made it back to the start already? That’s when she heard it—a waterfall.
“Jordan!” she exclaimed. “I love waterfalls!”
He stood behind her, his arms wrapped around her waist as they stared at the magnificence and splendor. Something about a waterfall entranced her, especially in the desert. The breeze created as the cascading falls pounded the river below as the sound of the crashing water drowned out all other noises as it beat the rocks below the waiting river’s surface. It was simply breathtaking.
Her eyes glazed over just a tad at the thoughtfulness that Jordan had put into their week. “Thank you,” she whispered.
He bent over her shoulder, kissing her neck. “I love them too,” he admitted.

  1. Lovely scene. It's nice when men pay attention. And the fact that he likes them too is also nice.

    1. Thank you, Kate. Jordan pays attention to everything, something he gets fussed at a lot about. Hey, he's a cop--he's suppose to notice. :)
