What a fun scene! I could feel the cold, smell the wood smoke, and taste the wine. I’m imagining besides the chicken maybe a course of local wild elk or boar. Love Kelly’s question of Gaines — what does he hope to get out of the commission.
I must admit this chapter was a bit self-indulgent. So much of this book is outside of the normal narrative structure I’m comfortable using so it was fun to jump back into the briar patch.
Soooo good. The opening scene is fantastic. And then the way we’re learning more about Gaines. Not to mention the intriguing ending. Snowed in!!?!
It was an indulgent chapter to write! Happy it was as much fun for you.
Love your reading voice
Thank you, Kerrie.

Getting snowed in. What could go wrong? Yikes.
Ha! Exactly. Gaines has a plan.
Love the detail about Kelly’s eyeliner.
Me too!
