Beach Musings Monday: "Warm Hands, Cold Heart" a super-short romance

          Caitlyn wrapped her hands around a mug of steamy coffee, inhaling the fragrant aroma of roasted Arabica beans.  She absolutely loved the smell of fresh brewed coffee, but detested the taste.  The only reason she’d brewed a cup was to have something to warm her hands on.  She had never been so cold in her entire life.     
          Having been born and raised in the sunny southern California, she was suffering her first winter on the desolate prairies of Nebraska.  The job offer had been too good to pass up, and being two-thousand miles away from Derek, that cheating skunk of an ex-fiancĂ©, was an added bonus.  But she hadn’t realized how brutal winter could be until the first blizzard of the season hit and the furnace conked out.
