Takeout
This is not a love story. This is a flirtation, a romance of two people who by chance crossed each other’s paths at the counter of a department store. Who would have guessed the sweater counter at Barney’s New York could have brought a pair of very different souls together? But, for Caren Barrett, an adwoman with a gift for snappy lines and aptly placed words, and Greggory Pallard, a wunderkind of industrial audio and video production; attraction of two opposing personalities came as each grasped a wintergreen cable knit sweater. Millionaire on the world stage, Pallard had a reputation for varied levels of chaos in his life, including a penchant for models and starlets across the globe. Smart and shy, Barrett was the epitome of a Laura Ashley advertisement. Refined and without a need to blow her own horn at accomplishments in the ad firm she worked at, she kept her head low and her smile ever coy. Two people, so seemingly different, had something in common – an eagerness for a new horizon. Greggory Pallard and Caren Barrett were not looking for love or some grand romance; but, what they uncovered in each other was an adventure of the heart and soul, which was unexpected. Life and relationships can be like a home cooked meal. But, sometimes something different was on fate’s menu. A.H. Scott delivers destiny in “Takeout”.

ABOUT A.H. SCOTT -
A.H. Scott is an author of fiction of varied styles. From contemporary to historical; she brings characters into stark view. Romances ever so sweet and tender to adventures of legends from far-away lands, her writing can take a readers’ imagination to places of courage, passion, pride, and sojourn of enlightenment. Yet, don’t be fooled, A.H. Scott does not let her pen rest on a single note of simplicity. She delves into desires within the heart with characters of sensuality and decadent lust. Women of abandon and men of lascivious intent intermingle in plots of hedonistic havens. Beyond the stars or right next door, her fiction soars and swirls with touches of light and excursions into shadow.
========================
A.H. SCOTT Philosophy -
"As an author, I enjoy letting my characters and plots that I've created get inside of the reader's heads. I make a promise to anyone that rolls the dice and catches a glimpse of my work that you will never be bored. Your eyes, mind and soul shall be thrilled. This is my bond to you, the reader: No simplicity ever from A.H. Scott. Always complexity is my main intent on anyone who reads my work." - A.H. Scott

Nice little spicy tale
A.h. Scott takes her time and guide through this tale. She leaves the adult parts largely to your imagination. There is likeable characters which isn't a requirement in short fiction. So it is nice to see. I will like to see other adventures she takes us on.
