Thanks for hosting me on your blog today! :-)<br /><br />Shattered Vows overlaps book 2 in the series a little in that it picks up about a year after Chloe finds out about Rico's infidelity. Here's a scene from their anniversary date disaster. The couple goes to the Houston Improv where they went on their first date in hopes of trying to remember how they fell in love.<br /><br />Will the Thrill jumped straight into his routine after the round of applause subsided. His first joke was about dating and how he wasn’t ready to commit to his girlfriend by getting married.<br />“C’mon now men. Y’all know how much extra work it is to hide the side woman when you get married. Gotta put all these codes in your phone, use aliases and lie, lie, lie. Even when you get caught, stick to the lie. Ain’t that right my man?” he joked as he gestured toward Rico.<br />Her anticipation waned at those jokes. In fact, they weren’t funny at all. Bad choice in her mind. What began to tick her off was that Rico was doubled over in laughter . . . clearly, something he shouldn’t have been laughing at given the situation they were in.<br />“What in the hell is so funny, Rico?” she sneered, leaning to the side to look up at him wiping tears from his eyes.<br />“What?” Rico asked, clearly confused.<br />“So cheating is funny?”<br />“Sweetie, these are just jokes. C’mon now.”<br />“I’m glad you think ruining our marriage and our lives is funny. I’m getting out of here!” Chloe scooted away from the table, snatched her purse and walked away with Rico following close behind.<br />“Looks like someone got caught doing what I just said not to do!” the comedian joked to their retreating backs as they exited the room, causing an uproar in the crowd.<br />Rico grabbed her hand and she spun around. She yanked her hand back and folded her arms across her chest. The look she gave would have killed him if looks could kill. Infidelity was a sore spot with her and definitely not a laughing matter. Rico couldn’t understand why she took it so seriously. Everyone in the room, except her, knew that those were only jokes. There was no reason to get upset over nothing. But to her it wasn't nothing, it was the reason her life was turned upside down.<br /><br />Shattered Vows is available on Kindle and Paperback. Read the story to find out how Chloe handles the gut punch that life has thrown her! :-)Author Natasha Frazierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10295227340981731480noreply@blogger.com
