A Heart Not Easily Broken - Brian's POV #2


Welcome back for a sneak peek into the second chapter of A Heart Not Easily Broken, Book 1 of The Butterfly Memoirs!



Chapter 2 is an introduction to the male lead of the story, Brian Young, the sexy bass guitarist in the band, Diverse Nation.  If you missed last week's post, no problem, click the link or read the full first chapter



Ebony walks toward the the truck, her mind set on the contents inside her large bag. She realizes she may not have enough cash to pay him. Their eyes meet, stopping her dead in her tracks, surprise written all over her face. Brian has already recovered and a million thoughts race through his mind. Ebony, on the other hand, is obviously uncomfortable. 

Maybe guilt for not meeting me in VIP?

“I’m here to cut your grass.” I screwed the top back on the gas can, fighting the urge to laugh at the irony of the situation.

Play it cool. I was not about to let her know how disappointed I’d been sitting alone. What happened a few nights ago had nothing to do with the money she was about to put in my pocket.



Now you know, she didn't stick around after all. Where will they go from here? Well, this is a novel so it's obvious they get somewhere....the question is how. And isn't that the fun part? 


See you next week!

A Heart Not Easily Broken - Brian's POV #1


Welcome back for a sneak peek into the second chapter of A Heart Not Easily Broken, Book 1 of The Butterfly Memoirs!



Chapter two is an introduction to the male lead of the story, Brian Young, sexy bass guitarist in the band, Diverse Nation.  If you missed last week's final post for chapter 1, no problem, click the link, or read the full first chapter




It is now Monday, two days since working at the club. Brian does more than play music. He also owns a lawn care business to pay his expenses.


After a long day in the hot California sun, Brian is ready to call it quits. He receives a call requesting his services. The caller informs him that her roommate is on the way home and will pay the bill. At the house, Brian is removing his equipment when the customer arrives. The moment he sees her, he is speechless... its Ebony.


Her attention is diverted as she digs around in her purse and has yet to make eye contact. Brian takes the time to study her. 


Her hair wasn’t flowing over her shoulders, tempting my fingers to get lost in its waves. Her legs were not bare, nor did she wear a skin tight, short dress, showing off shapely calf muscles, as she had the other evening. Instead, she wore a baggy shirt over pants with some kind of printed design, something like standard medical wear. She wore her hair in a ponytail, and her feet were in tennis shoes. She struggled to balance an armful of books of various sizes and a book bag over her shoulder.
Ebony was still sexy as hell.

Surprise, surprise, surprise........
