Rose by Shanna Hatfield
FOUND: Old-fashioned letter in a bottle on the beach…
Now what’s he supposed to do with it?
Tanner Thomas has no interest in contacting
the woman who wrote a heartfelt, hopelessly romantic letter his mother
found in a bottle on the beach. So why won’t thoughts of her stop
tormenting him? Desperate to get her out of his mind once and for all,
he makes a surprise trip to meet her, completely unprepared to fall in
love with a stranger he meets on the beach.
Excerpt:
“No, Mom! No way, no how!” Tanner Thomas glowered at his mother from
across the dinner table. He plunked down the knife and fork in his hands
and counted to ten, attempting to curtail his inclination to lose
patience with his meddling parent. Over the years, she’d come up with
any number of ridiculous schemes to set him up on dates, but she’d
reached an all new level of absurdity if she thought he’d follow her
latest suggestion. “It’s never, ever, going to happen, Mom.”“But, Tanner, she sounds like a perfectly marvelous girl,” Meri Thomas said. Hope glimmered in eyes the same warm shade of blue as Tanner’s. She lifted a glass bottle from where she’d placed it beside his dinner plate and tipped out a piece of rolled parchment, the kind one might have used to write letters a few hundred years ago. “I have a feeling this girl is the one, honey. You have to get in touch with her.”
Tanner shook his head, refusing to take the letter she held out to him. “I don’t care who she is, where she’s from, or anything about her. I’m not emailing a total stranger because you think she might be the one.” He used his index and middle fingers to make air quotations. “The one, Mom? Come on. You said the same thing about the lunatic who worked with your friend’s niece at the coffee shop. I thought I was going to have to take out a restraining order to get her to leave me alone.”
