Sneak Peek Sunday

A bit from Winter's Chill, the second installment of Wallflower Diaries.....

Josephine slid the slinky dress down her body and kicked it onto the nicked wooden bench.  Her feet ached from the cold and walking so far in the flimsy shoes that sadly fell apart two blocks from the dorm.  She’d tossed them in a rusted receptacle and continued barefoot, grateful there was no ice on the walkways.  The steam from the shower billowed outward leaving moisture droplets on the faded gray tiles.  Josephine loved slipping into the bathroom reserved for the floor monitors.  Thankfully, she had made nice with the lovely redheaded junior from the third floor, and the attractive, lacrosse-playing junior with the rock hard abs on the second floor.  Both had given her free license – and the key code – to use the faculty bathroom.
