What are the secret contents of the locket? You’ll have to read the book to find out.
For now, here’s a hint, an excerpt from Chapter Eight:
===
He turned the locket over, spread the chain between his fingers, and offered it back to Brandy. “Wear this and ye’ll never have me far from your heart. Forever. I promise.”
Brandy’s face flushed. She had experienced the entire gamut of emotions in only a few seconds. She waited in silence for a few moments. Then she realized he was still holding the locket toward her, unmoved.
She cautiously plucked the locket from his hand. The chain went dangling across his fingers and against the table below. Her eyes met his and then returned to the locket.
Instinctively, she planted a tender kiss on the locket—the kiss of a mother healing the supposed wound of a small child—vicariously directed toward the sailor, but firmly placed on the locket.
She branched the chain out in her fingers, unclasped it, and started to reach behind her neck. But the sailor interrupted her actions by getting up, walking around her, and taking the two ends in his fingers. He secured the necklace at the back of her neck, placed his hands on her shoulders, and gently turned her around.

“Brandy You’re A Fine Girl”, a novel written by Joe DeShon and inspired by the 1972 hit song by Looking Glass, will be available in paperback, Kindle, and Audible formats in Spring, 2019. #BrandyBook
