Meeting in the most
unusual ways
Doesn't
it seem like you only ever read or hear about couples who meet and subsequently
fall in love in the most normal circumstances? Ask for dating advice and
undoubtedly people will tell you to go to a bar, a bookstore or start a new
class. I'm sure there are plenty of people who actually have found their soul
mate in just that way, but I also think there are many other, more unusual ways
to meet your special someone.
I
probably believe that because I met my husband while driving... in two
different vehicles. Yep, we met while “cruising.” Fate stepped in at the corner
of College and Albert streets, turning the light before us red so we’d be
forced to end up beside each other. That red light ultimately gave us the green
light to fall in love. Corny, but totally true. Ask our friends who cruised
with us that night if you don't believe me. 19 years later and we’re still in
love and constantly amazed at how fate stepped in and changed our lives.
Sara
and Dane meet in a pretty unusual way too. In ESCAPE TO MY ARMS, Sara first
lays eyes on shotgun-toting Dane when he finds her hiding under a blanket in
the back of her truck. And if that wasn't unusual enough, add in that the world
as they know it has just ended as a pandemic sweeps into the country. Sara and
Dane have to fight for their survival when fate pulls them together and away
from the rest of civilization. But can love bloom in a world that’s dying?
Is it
possibly to find love in an unlikely place when you're not looking for it? I
think so. Do you? Did you meet your significant other in an unusual way? If
you're still out there looking for Mr/Mrs Right, do you only look in the normal
avenues or do you think love will find you when you least expect it? Tell me
your thoughts in a comment!
Blurb:
Sara’s been preparing for this moment her whole
life—she just never believed it would actually happen. With her bug-out bag and
emergency food already in her truck, her only goal is to get to her family’s
hidden bunker and wait out the pandemic that’s hit every major cruise ship port
in the US. But her plan quickly falls apart. She’s out of gas, her route to the
bunker is now a two-lane parking lot with no alternative in sight, and her only
weapon is a pocketknife. For an experienced prepper, she’s made every rookie
mistake.
Dane believes he’s safe in his cabin, off the
beaten path and in the woods with his own source for water, electricity and an
endless supply of food to hunt. After finding Sara stranded and alone, he’s
suddenly not only providing for and protecting himself, but also the girl who
wandered out of the woods and into his life. When looters come looking to take
what he has, Sara and Dane’s only option is to make a run for their last
hope—the bunker.
Can Sara and Dane find safety in each other’s
arms and will they survive long enough to escape to a future together?
