Day 15 of the A to Z April Blogging Challenge 2016

Hi,

For those of you visiting my blog this is day 15 of the A to Z Blogging Challenge. Today’s corresponding letter is “O” Today I chose the names Olena and Orton. These names are a bit unusual, which is what drew me to them.

Enjoy today’s post and remember to let your imagination soar when you read.

Have a great day.

“Olena.”

Fit perfect, she’d be the light in his darkness, if he could get his mouth to work right.

“Beautiful name. Would you mind getting a cup of coffee with me?”
