Wishing On a Starr
“When she finally managed to pry her eyes open Saturday morning-well, Saturday afternoon, she felt as if she’d been run down by a Mack truck. This was why she wasn’t a party person-the consequences far outweighed the benefits.
The telephone blared from the nightstand, but the thing sounded as though it was somehow implanted in her ear. Pressing a pillow against her head, she tried to ignore it; but her teeth rattled and her brain threatened to explode.
Gia groaned and rolled to the edge ...of the bed and swung out her hand to seize the torturous object. Before she could tuck the phone under her ear, she fell unceremoniously onto the floor, banged her head on the edge of the nightstand, and roared out a succession of curses that would make a veteran sailor blush.
After waiting for the pain to pass, she scrambled across the floor and retrieved the phone. “Hello.”
“Uh, yeah. May I speak to Gia Hunter?”MoreLess
