Excerpt :
Max cocked his head
at her. No siree, Bob. Daisy Moon was not easy. She was like a 1500 piece
puzzle, where all the pieces are really tiny, and similar in shape and color,
but are nonetheless different, and it would take weeks, maybe even months, just
to get the edges put together.
"Don't look so surprised," she said. "I know
I'm not exactly laid back. Okay, maybe that's being kind," she responded
to Max’s smile. "But I'm an incredible cook. And a really good speller.
Not to mention having a humongous vocabulary. I came in fourth in the national
spelling bee championship when I was fourteen."
Without meaning to,
Max pictured Daisy at fourteen, in a prim white blouse and a demure plaid skirt
with her hair tied back in a ribbon, triumphantly spelling words
like... concupiscence.
"Do I know what men want, or what?" Now Daisy
smiled... at herself.
Taking the cue, Max leaned into her and spoke sincerely, but
resisted the urge to cup her hand. "Somewhere there is a man who wants a
pretty redhead who's difficult and a great cook with a really humongous
vocabulary who can spell... and next time it won't be a cross-dressing
felon."
