 Excerpt: Prologue: Leah’s hands shook as she fumbled with the key. It was late, so maybe her dorm sisters would all be asleep. She sobbed, then pressed her fist against her mouth. Fool! she screamed silently. Leah reached her room and slipped inside, grateful her roommate had left for the weekend. She couldn’t talk about what had happened tonight. The words ‘date rape’ burned into her brain. Why had she gone? She was getting married in two weeks. How had a case of wedding jitters turned into a nightmare? All she’d wanted was one last bit of freedom, one date with someone new before she swore that solemn vow. It had nothing to do with her love for Nick. He was everything she wanted. But he’d never understand this. Leah sat on the bed to steady her breathing, then went into the bathroom and turned on the shower to Hot. She stripped her clothes and threw them in the trash can, then stepped into the scalding water. Do you really think you can wash tonight out of your memory? she asked herself. She scrubbed her skin raw until the water turned cold. One thing was certain. Nick must never know. © Links Page/Author Bio Return to Home  E-Mail: bonniedrury@yahoo.combonnibooks.com REVIEWS
