Welcome back To Sweet Saturday Sample!
 

Here's a little teaser from "Innocent Tears",
set in Melbourne / Australia.

“Would you like to see a photo of my mum?”

Emma tilted her head to the side. “I’d love to.”

Nadine hopped off the chair and as quickly as she had previously retrieved her bag with dolls out of the other room, she returned with a framed photo. “That’s Mum and me on my birthday. I’m six!” Nadine beamed.

“She’s beautiful.”

“Grandma says she’s in heaven, but I know she’s with the rainbow fairies now.”

Emma smiled at that thought. “That’s the fairy with the boy who didn’t want to grow up, isn’t it?”

Nadine’s eyes opened wide. “No! That’s a tinker. Mum is now up in a rainbow and creates the beautiful colours in the sky.”

The girl held onto the frame tight, and it caused Emma’s chest to squeeze as she thought of her own mother.

“How long are you staying here in Melbourne, Naddie?”

“Don’t know.” And while slowly taking the photo back into the other room, she whispered more to herself than Emma, “I probably won’t go back home again.” She stopped in the door way and wiped her face with the back of her hand. “I miss her so much,” she added quietly.
