Hello and welcome to the BWL Publishing Insiders Blog. I'm sharing a
short excerpt from my "terrifying" novel that is perfect for a scary
Halloween read, Terror on Sunshine Boulevard.
A reader told me she discovered she shouldn't have read Terror on Sunshine Boulevard before bed. She was too scared to turn off the lights and go to sleep!
📙🎃 📙🎃📙🎃📙🎃📙🎃
Back of the Book: Terror on Sunshine Boulevard by J.Q.
Rose
Rescuing a naked woman lying in a geranium bed or investigating
mysterious murders are not the usual calls for first responder Jim Hart.
He expects slip and fall accidents or low blood pressure emergencies in
his retirement community of Citrus Ridge Senior Community and Golf
Resort. The ghastly crime scenes turn the winter time fun into a
terrifying season of death and mystery when the authorities cannot track
down the predator responsible.
Jim and his wife Gloria could escape the horror and grief by returning
to their northern home, but concern for their friends and residents keep
them in Florida. With the entire community in a dither over the deaths,
the Harts participate in the normal winter activities of golfing,
dancing, and pool parties with their friends to distract them from the
sadness and loss.
Can Jim and Gloria work with the authorities to discover who or what is
killing the seniors on Sunshine Boulevard and stop the increasing body
count?
Excerpt: Terror on Sunshine Boulevard by J.Q. Rose, Chapter 8
Warning: This is the chills part of the blog post, not the giggles.
Turning on the warm water in the bathtub, she placed her hand under the faucet to gauge the temperature. When it was just right, she turned the shower on at full force, ready to step in for a relaxing indulgence with the warm water raining over her body. Before Pamela could step in, she heard Noel’s moan from the bedroom. Terror clutched her throat. Oh, Noel, please don’t have a heart attack now! She yanked open the bathroom door and stood frozen in the doorway. The moonlight through the window added shimmer to the yellow stripes crawling across Noel’s naked body. When a blazing yellow light filled the bedroom, she slammed the bathroom door shut. The animal instinct to escape kicked in. Clambering onto the toilet and stepping onto the granite counter, she yanked the screen off the bathroom window and dove headfirst into the cool night air. She landed face down on top of the flowers in the wood-chipped flower bed below. Pamela’s screams pierced the night as she lay naked among the geraniums....to be continued.
Do you enjoy being scared? Haunted houses? Horror movies? Scary books?

Though I'm not a horror fan, this book frightened me
ReplyDeleteSorry the story scared you, but I guess that's what it is supposed to do, especially during this month of witches, goblins and ghosts--oh my! Thank you for taking time to comment.
