I clenched my eyelids shut and listened without saying a word and when I finally looked at Bobby, he had leaned back so that his eyes were focused on the starry sky. He reached out as if to grab the stars but I believe he was reaching for God. “Help me,” he whispered. He looked at me then touched my cheek lightly with the back of his hand.
“My Magnolia, my enchanted Magnolia.”
Book Excerpt
Magnolia Cristiana St. Claire
Their eyes met and she twirled before him as she clicked
her tongue and snapped her fingers, her black hair ruffled from the
soft southern breeze. Her skirt flew as the red and purple became
one and the gold coins danced in their own rhythms. Sparks between
Francois and Soleil electrified the air as her gold shoes tapped to
his complicated music. The other Gypsies joined in with frenzied
rhythmical clapping which encouraged Francois and Soleil to become
even wilder. Then the dancing stopped as quickly as it had
begun.
