Death by Engagement

Page 20

by Jaden Skye


  Once Hunter and Megan meet, nothing is ever the same again. As he repairs the roof that blew off her home, the two cannot hold back their feelings for each other. They fall madly in love. Yet Megan cannot, once again, live with a man who is keeping secrets from her: she needs Hunter to open up about who he is, about what he’s running from. And that is not something Hunter may be ready to do.

  As they face a crucial crossroads in their affair, a shocking and dramatic twist hits the town: one that will test their love, and will test the town. Nothing will be the same in Tom’s River again.

  * * *

  [cl1]Lots of double spaces between words. I’m going to turn off tracking and correct the others, to avoid clutter.

  [cl2]“noncommittally” might be better here. or “with neutral expressions”

  [cl3]“fiancée” with 2 “e’s” refers to the female.

  [cl4] Changed for clarity.

  [cl5]Webster’s has this as “divi-divi.” Change?

  [cl6]divi-divi?

  [cl7]divi-divis?

  [cl8]Deleted—sounded repetitive since it was used in previous sentence too.

  [cl9]Delete? Next dialogue sentence pretty much repeats it.

  [cl10]This word describes an action done with an attitude or expression of suspicion and isn’t usually used with “was.”

  [cl11]When it’s a verb, spelled without the final “e.”

  [cl12]Doesn’t this usually happen at night? (It’s still morning in this scene.)

  [cl13]Would she have brought an “old raincoat” with her to Aruba?

  [cl14]I can’t help but wonder about the suicide note. Doug wrote it? The note was described as being in Shari’s handwriting and was “beautiful” and “graceful.” Would a man have been able to forge such a note?
