Tuesday Intro/Teaser


First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is a weekly meme hosted by Diane at Bibliophile by the Sea every Tuesday. To participate share the opening paragraph or two of a book you've decided to read based on that paragraph. Please feel free to join in, First Chapter~First Paragraph~Tuesday Intros.


Night was like Christmas. There wasn't nearly enough of it to go around, especially in June. At. 8:55, I walked down our little bayside street, crossed the road, and wound through the lot of the Worthy Wayfarer toward what I hoped was an empty shore. My company consisted of sand, circular thoughts, and a wretched pair of shorts. Fletcher, my therapist, thought getting me back in clothes that didn't cover up my whole body, even at night, was a step in the right direction. I'd agreed to try, and this was my first attempt at bare legs. It was dark, I was in my favorite place on the planet, and I was fine. Showing my scars to no one was fine. That's what I told myself as I reached the dune walk.
