Welcome to 2026 Book Birthday On My Birthday Tradition!!!!! *I might be a little excited and hyper. ROFLAMO*
This is a Page Brief that’s new and never posted anywhere else. Yep new and never posted anywhere else. It’s being posted for the first time as part of the 2026 Book Birthday On My Birthday Tradition!
Join me daily here on the blog for next Page Brief. There’s also something special for the last day of August 2026 as a wrap up for the 2026 Book Birthday On My Birthday Tradition. 🙂
*holding up a glass of champagne* Wheeee…onto today’s 2026 Book Birthday On My Birthday Tradition Page Brief!!!
Today’s Page Brief features characters from Unexpected Love, Rowan, Book #9. Enjoy!
From time to time there’s multi-part Page Brief’s that go together. I think of it as a Page Brief Serial and I name them. The below Page Brief Serial Chosen by You features the books at the time I wrote these Page Brief’s that were available in my Rowan series. Eventually when books are released in the Rowan series an Page Brief might be written and if it is it will be added to the Chosen by You Page Brief Serial. So this Page Brief Serial is a continuous one (at my discretion/time permits).
Chosen by You is a multi-part Page Brief Serial and best read in order for the most enjoyment. They are usually in order of the Rowan series for which they are written about (unless otherwise noted).
This might be a rough draft so excuse any typos and so on.

Ryson heard something and followed it. He stopped in the doorway of his music room listening to a clarinet being expertly played. Surprised he stared at the woman who had won his heart. Khandi was oblivious to him standing there. She was caught up in playing the clarinet. Ryson swayed as he listened to her playing one of his songs. Khandi looked up and her eyes widened. She stopped playing and lowered the instrument.
“I didn’t know you were there.” Khandi smiled sheepishly. “Sorry I noticed this new clarinet you had. And I couldn’t resist trying it out.”
“No. No need to apologize.” Ryson walked towards her. “I didn’t realize you could play the clarinet.”
“I played from time I was a kid. Also while in college. I was even part of the band.” Khandi chuckled.
“Really!” Ryson reached her and stopped. “How did I not know this?”
“I have many layers you don’t know about me.” Khandi said playfully.
“There are so many things I still have to learn about you.” Ryson smiled at her.
“And I about you.” Khandi went to put down the instrument.
“No. Let’s do something together.” Ryson suggested.
He saw the reluctance on her face.
“Come on and join me in the beauty of sound. Don’t tell me you’re intimidated to do something with me.” Ryson stifled his smirk.
He knew her well enough to know what her reaction to that statement would be.
Khandi’s eyes darkened and her nostrils flared.
He pushed a little bit more. “Just because I’m considered a musical genius you don’t have a need to be intimidated.”
“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing. All this talk about musical genius isn’t you. Although that’s what you are.” Khandi lifted an eyebrow. “Tweaking my need to prove you wrong is underhanded. Effective but underhanded.”
Ryson didn’t say a word. Since he had won he stared at her then started to sing. Khandi’s eyes darkened even more with the passion of her love for him.
“Of course you’re going to pick a love song.” Khandi lifted the clarinet to her lips.
She jumped in to the song matching him. Ryson stared at this fascinating woman who continued to surprise him. They had so much time together to learn about each other. And he was going to enjoy each and every moment. Continuing with now as they enjoyed the beauty of sound.
