I’ve joined the Rainbow Snippets group on Facebook. From their description: “Rainbow Snippets is a group for LGBTQ+ authors, readers, and bloggers to gather once a week to share six sentences from a work of fiction–a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation (no spoilers please!).” Pretty cool, eh? Don’t forget to “Like” my Facebook page and/or my Facebook profile while you’re over there checking out this fantastic group!
In honor of the release of the Vows Series Box Set, I’m going with another snippet from To Love and To Cherish (the final story in the set). The box set is up exclusively at Amazon.
This snippet follows immediately after where I left off last week. Overview of the scene: Nash has come home to face his roommates (Harley and Oliver), and he’s scrabbling to find a way to tell them about the arrangement he’s just made with Emmitt (a marriage of convenience). He’s afraid of what their reaction might be so he’s trying to head that off by redirecting the conversation to their own relationship.
Last week ended with Harley asking Nash:
“There. Satisfied?”
So now it’s time for Harley and Oliver to have a mild smushy scene after that oh-so-romantic (?!) proposal (oh dear, I hope they haven’t forgotten about Nash’s diversion). This is told from Nash’s 3rd-person POV:
Nash grinned and plopped down on the couch. “Congratulations. Wow, I didn’t really expect that, but cool.”
Harley pulled Oliver to him and kissed his new fiancé. “I love you.”
Oliver rested his head on Harley’s shoulder. “I knew after our first date that you were the one I wanted to spend my life with.”
“Yeah?”
“Uh-huh.”
“Yeah, me, too.”

Awwwww. They’re so sweet together.
Thank you. ♡ They had to be dragged to this point, but it wasn’t kicking and screaming.
Heart flutters. So sweet! 🙂
💕 Thank you! I like those two. I need to give them a flash fiction bonus scene.
Aww, such a sweet, tender moment. (heart)
💗 Thank you!
Luckily Nash and Emmitt’s wedding is much more romantic. Just read it. sighs happily <3
♡ Aw, thank you! Simple but romantic (which I think often goes hand-in-hand better than more elaborate gestures might).
Well, after reading my review yesterday, you know my opinion on the matter 😀
💕
Nice and mushy 🙂
It’s a bit of a heavy dose of that in this scene! 😁
Aw this is so sweet.
Thank you! ♡😊
Yes, remarkably slushy after that lopsided propsal. I suppose they had to make up for it…
Good point! ♡
Aww. So sweet.
🙂 Thank you! <3
Awww… But now the question is, “What took them so long?”
