Read an excerpt
A soft sound
of regret that he’d given his heart away so easily escaped Dale and then the
sudden slowing of the train grabbed his attention. Thrown a little forward by
the rapid decrease in speed, Dale huddled back in his seat. No one sat beside
him and the magazine he’d placed on the adjacent seat flew off forcefully as
the train ground to a halt.
People stood
and gaped out of the windows. Dale peered out at the white expanse sparkling in
the morning sun, unaware until then that the train had even traveled into
snow-covered country. The hum of concerned questions filled the carriage as
people looked around and talked in hushed voices. There’d been no collision, no
terrible sound of an accident and Dale, in the fog of his misery, waited
quietly for some indication of what was going on.
An
announcement floated from the practically invisible speaker at the front of the
carriage. A pretty sound chimed and a soothing voice stated the obvious before
giving information.
“Translines
Rail has made an unscheduled stop. We apologize for the inconvenience. There is
no need for alarm. We will shortly be mobile again when a passenger has
boarded. Thank you and enjoy the rest of your journey.”
Dale bent to
pick up the magazine that had fallen to the floor of the carriage. He hadn’t
even placed a fingertip on the glossy cover when a hand extending from the cuff
of a black jacket sleeve took hold of the magazine, and lifted it.
Dale swiftly
looked sideways to see who the hand belonged to, and came face-to-face with a
gorgeous man. Something about the man made Dale’s heart lurch, which scared
him, and because of the scare his heartbeat increased. He closed his eyes for a
few seconds, trying to calm this sudden flare of nerves. He gave up on
retrieving his reading material and sat up in the plush velveteen train seat
waiting for what would happen next.
“Your
journal. Is the seat free?” The man’s gentle voice soothed him only a little as
he held Dale’s magazine out, and gave an indicative nod toward the vacant seat
beside Dale.
“Thank you,
and yes the seat is free.” Captured by his outright beauty, Dale tried not to
stare at the man. He dropped his gaze to the colorful shot on the cover, and
accepted the magazine, holding it on his lap.
The man sat.
Dale
struggled not to look at the passenger beside him, whose cologne now filled up
his senses with a delicate, fresh, scent, a fragrance capturing the cool breeze
crossing the ocean on a summer night, somehow full of promise. The suit the man
wore was visibly expensive. Dale knew quality when he saw it even if it was
only on a quick look. As a photographer for major fashion magazines, he’d
gathered a knowledge and appreciation for clothes.
Dale stared
ahead and wondered if this man was the passenger the train had stopped for. He
edged a little away from the central armrest dividing the seats—their size was
generous and the man wasn’t even close, but Dale could feel his presence as if
gripped by a magnetic force. Finally, unable to help it, Dale chanced a
sideways glance.

From the author:
The story
‘Falling Star Valentine’ was inspired by shooting stars. We all know shooting
stars are falling meteorites, but the romance remains when one streaks across
the midnight blue sky. When two, in close succession, zoom over the night
vista as you stand on your hotel balcony, it’s a sight to behold. I travel a
little with my day job and in the autumn of 2016, I had to travel a lot more
than usual. One night when I couldn’t sleep because I was churning worries around,
I went out onto the balcony of the hotel room I was staying in and stared up at
the sky. The night sparkled cold and the sky displayed an array of stars
suddenly seeming only meters away a shooting star flew across my line of
vision, then another as if it followed the first.
I’m a die-hard
romantic and immediately my sweet but sexy character, Valentine Steel, had
formed in my head. He’s Falling Star Valentine on his way to visit. Will
he find love?
