If you can never get enough of your favorite authors (and who can?!?), you are going to love H&H's author writing challenge, H&H Quickies. Not only will you get to read fun, original scenes by awesome romance authors, but said awesome romance authors will be writing those scenes based on YOUR prompts!
Following up on wonderful Quickie scenes by Susan Andersen, Rebecca Zanetti, Kerrigan Byrne, Lora Leigh, Delilah S. Dawson, and more (see all the Quickies, here), we are pleased to announce today that Valerie Bowman will be the fourteenth author to participate in the H&H Quickies challenge! Here are the details:
The idea
For the next week, Wattpad users are invited to leave comments on this post with writing prompts/ideas for Valerie Bowman with a historical romance angle. Once the prompting period is over next week, Valerie will read over all of the prompts and pick at least two that she finds inspiring, and use them to write a short original scene. H&H will then post the scene for everyone to read and enjoy (yay!), as well as reveal which prompts Valerie used for the scene (woo-hoo!) for bragging rights.
As Claire aims to leave her oppressive stepfamily behind, she befriends Zion. Will he be her ticket to freedom or a distraction in achieving her dreams?
*****
Claire Olsen has had a crush on Zion Petrakis since the first time she laid eyes on him, but he never noticed, instead only having eyes on the school's it girl, Maddie Jennings. Knowing she couldn't compete with Maddie, Claire hid her feelings for Zion, satisfied with admiring him from afar. However, when a series of events led Claire closer to Zion, her feelings for him grew from infatuation to love. And despite fighting hard to keep her feelings contained by distancing herself from Zion, he was determined to show her that he's earned a spot in her life.
