Today I am going to post a line from

The Princess
by Lori Wick.

I would consider this an oldie, but a goodie!  I started reading Lori Wick's book when I was going to the bookmobile stop at the elementary school near my house.  This was before my small hometown city got a library in 1999.  Yes.  I have been reading Lori's books that long.  And The Princess​ is among my top favorites.

Pen in hand, Daria Parker bent over her personal journal, her eyes and mind intent.

Yay for the oldies that claim a permanent place in our hearts!

Lake Michigan
1897
I am living my nightmare. A violent storm has overtaken our steamship, and as we mount high on the crest of a wave one moment, then plunge sickeningly into a watery trough the next, I am certain we are about to sink.

Had to let you in on the second line there, too much suspense for just one little line!
