Saturday Snippet: You Look a Bit Lost, Miss

The following snippet is taken from

Mail Order Blythe

Secret Baby Dilemma Book 8 

 

         Rather than walk faster to catch up with his traveling companions, Eli’s footsteps slowed as his gaze focused on a young woman dressed in an unadorned but attractive gown. She stood on the platform next to their train that had pulled in from Iowa. Her fan and reticule hanging from the wrist that clutched her carpetbag, a valise stood on the ground next to her feet. Although he approached mainly from behind her, her auburn hair under a short-brimmed, natural straw hat festooned with small feathers and a wilted ribbon bow on the hatband caught his eye. He recognized her right away. After he boarded the train in Iowa City, she had been sitting across the aisle and one bench ahead of him.

          With her head bowed, she appeared to study something she held in her hand. He slowed his footsteps and angled his path so he approached her from the side. “You look a bit lost, miss. May I help you with anything?”

          Her eyebrows raised and her lips parted, the woman jerked her head to face him. She glanced back at the paper in her hand. “I don’t know.”
