~At the End of the Rainbow Bridge~
Father had warned Dorothea Cumberton about the evils of men, so Dorothea, ever the good daughter, never married. Yet she was devastated when she lost her beloved Irish terrier, Leprechaun. When she tried to retreat to her bed to forget, she was plagued by dreams of meeting Chaun at the foot of a bridge—and always at the end of his leash was The Man with the Kind Face. Was Dorothea’s dear dog trying to give her one last gift from beyond? Dorothea would find out when she went to have Chaun’s headstone carved and met Pat O’Gold. But Pat, it seemed, had a mystery in his past. Was Father right? Was he evil in spite of his kind face?
A good friend is a connection to life—a tie to the past, a road to the future, the key to sanity in a totally insane world. ~Lois Wyse
Clever title with the clever character names! Ha. But I do want to read more. Nice going. More love in the air with this pic!
ReplyDeleteA message from beyond from the dog-very creative this week. I think everyone saw some kind of lost love (with the exception of Lisa so far). We must all be romantics at heart...
ReplyDeleteNice take on the prompt! That story would make me cry, I just know it . . . I had no inspiration this week:-/
ReplyDeleteO'Gold at the end of the rainbow? I know that has to have a happy ending, but I know I'd enjoy reading the tale and learning the secret of O'Gold's mysterious past.
ReplyDeleteAll that mystery spun with a sense of humor, a must buy book.
ReplyDeleteTee-hee! I make it a point not to read anyone's blurbs until I post mine. Of course, I also had a "dog" theme for this. Great minds, you know!

Wow...she really is a good daughter to eschew men just because daddy said so. LOL The romantic appeal has me hooked. This is one I'd read curled up with a cup of hot tea.
ReplyDeleteLove the name Pat O'Gold! Foreshadowing, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteNo worries Dorothea replaced Leprechaun with Bigfoot the German Shepherd. :) Have a great weekend.

A gift from beyond?!! Whoa...this is sending chills through my spine as I read it. Golly, I think your book will be an incredible writing...please continue.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting with me Friday for my book blurb and leaving a sweet comment!!!
Today's post LINK
Hope your weekend has treated you well.
A pot O'Gold? (Hopefully Pat does not have a pot belly!)
ReplyDeleteSometimes a replacement dog would be a better idea than a man...Just a suggestion to Dorthea.
Thanks to all of you for your kind comments. And Jules and Sioux, thanks for the snorts and giggles!
