Coast to Coast

By Nanisi Barrett D'Arnuk

Long-time loner and party girl Marty Pendleton has finally fallen in love. The problem: Marty lives in Seattle, and her new girlfriend Taylor lives in Boston. Her best friend Elaine and her brother Sean are worried that, as usual, Marty will blow it.

Taylor is everything Marty could want in a woman: sexy, confident, and successful. But how will Taylor handle Marty’s penchant for over-reacting and drinking a bit too much?

When Marty makes assumptions, she risks losing everything. Can she convince Taylor she’ll change for the better and make this work, even long-distance?

Coast to Coast

By Nanisi Barrett D’Arnuk

Marty slid onto the bench of the long booth, said a bright Hi, and planted a quick kiss on my cheek. I hadn’t seen her in about three weeks, which was rare. I usually saw her at least once a week, if not more.

Well, hello to you, too. I smiled at her. What a surprise! I hadn’t seen her this happy in ages! What’s gotten into you? Or should I ask who you’ve gotten into?

Marty bobbed her head in a mock show of embarrassment and smiled up at me. I met someone, she told me. The glint in her eyes showed her feelings.

I sat back without a word. A raised eyebrow was my only response.

I met someone, Marty reiterated.

Two someones? Or just being redundant?

One someone. Marty laughed. One hell of a someone. The look on her face was astonishing. Her eyes even glowed.

I smiled at my friend. I knew I’d have to ask if I wanted to know more. Marty was the type to offer just a little of what she wanted you to know: the very basics, no details.
