Hump Day Hook

Hiya! I have much going on today but I couldn't miss out on Humping today!!! I think we'll visit with Jolie today from Gravity Beach.

Excerpt Gravity Beach:

Mrs. Perkins, the principal, motioned to someone outside the door. A few seconds later a man walked in wearing a U.S. Army uniform. Jolie would know it anywhere. Ethan had worn one for more than half of their relationship. The unbearable lump formed in her throat and her eyes filled with tears. She tried to swallow her emotions down, but all she could see was Ethan. How he would grab her up in a huge hug when he first returned home from a deployment. She staggered back a step as her heart felt as though it stopped in her chest.

    Powerful scene. "...She staggered back a step as her heart felt as though it stopped in her chest." Can't help wondering if it's in response to more than the uniform.

    My heart is breaking for her! And I'm left dying to know what caused such a reaction, what happened to him. Great job!

    I have to hope that it's Ethan for her sake because I think she would have a very hard time coping if it wasn't. Great hook!
