Go here for more Hump Day Hooks:)
How about a holiday paragraph from Love On The Rocks?
Con Keller looked over the top of the
morning paper at her. “Did you
bring that English grade up?”
“Yes. I’ve made good grades on all the
tests.”
“And your other
classes?”
Damn... “Econ may be lower, but that’s it. I’m doing well in everything else.”
“You’ll find the
keys on my desk.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Elicia hugged her father then kissed his cheek. “I’ll call you if they want me to
start right away.” She went to get the keys.
Driving to the
mall in her red sunbird was heaven after being driven everywhere or walking. No
pressures to live up to Diana’s scholastic achievements, no lectures on her
choice of clothing from her ultraconservative mother, no worries…period. She was free to do as she wanted and
after entering the mall, she headed for her favorite clothing store and spoke
to the manager, for whom she’d worked for all through high school.
Love On The Rocks can be found at SCP, Amazon, and Barnes and Noble:)

The excerpt brings me back to those days... good job!
Another great excerpt!
@Marie: Yup; nothing more restricting than suddenly having your freedom taken away for 3 weeks, due to being back home!
@Amber: Thank you:)
I think it's time for her to move out! ;)
