The Rainbow Snippets group on Facebook asks its members to share six sentence snippets from their work each weekend (I'll beg forgiveness in advance for sometimes going over the sentence limit!). Check out the group's Facebook page to read all the snippets and add lots of great books to your TBR. You'll find all sorts of books with the common thread that the main character identifies as LGBTQ.
Today I'm sharing a snippet from A Dance of Water and Air because it had an anniversary this past week—seven years out in the world! (If you're going to be at Rainbow Space Magic this weekend, you'll hear me read another snippet from the book too.) A Dance of Water and Air is the first book in the Elemental Magicae duology. In Dance, Prince Edmund is told that he must marry the queen of the neighboring country in an alliance marriage, but when he arrives there, something isn't right and Edmund becomes close to—and then falls in love with—the queen's brother, Arden. Then Edmund is accused of trying to assassinate the queen and he and Arden going on the run, trying to find a way to save themselves and their countries. This snippet is from the very beginning of the book. Edmund is enjoying a peaceful moment...which is about to be interrupting.
