It’s Sunday and that means another six sentences! Check out the main stage at Six Sentence Sunday to link to more great novel snapshots.
More from my romantic suspense, Backlash, that releases June 1st from The Wild Rose Press.
Small town teacher, Lily Wheeler, is upset over a vicious attack on one of her student’s. She’s also trying to make sense of the sudden reappearance of an ex-high school sweetheart. You met Chase Porter last week.
“What are you doing here?” she asked, because apparently stupidity was also a symptom of fear induced insanity. Like his presence was the biggest thing she had to worry over. Like she cared that he had appeared out of thin air, in the nick of time, after disappearing for a decade.
“Rescuing you?” His hands settled on his hips. His eyes traveled the length of her and back up, right before he shook his head like he couldn’t believe his bad luck.
And there you have it! As always, I love hearing your comments.
Loved her reaction and his response!
Thanks, Angela!
Wow! Definitely intriguing, and I can feel the tension brewing between them. Good job! 🙂
Thanks, Zee. I’m glad that’s coming through!
Oh, Karyn! This is still one of my favorite scenes ever! I remember this from the old Beta Blogger gang. I can’t wait until this book releases and I get to finally read the whole thing!
Thanks, Silver. I miss the Beta Bloggers! Revisiting these scenes makes me think of the gang every time. I learned A LOT from those critiques!
Very nice six! Love his reply.
Thanks, Babette.
I love their dialogue here. It grabbed me right away 🙂 His answer with a question mark was great 🙂
Thanks, Melynda!
Congratulations on your upcoming release! It’s almost here.
Great six— Hmm… so where has he been for a decade?
Thanks, Karen. I’m very excited to be sharing snippets of it here on six Sentence Sundays!
That was great! Stupidity IS a product of fear-induced insanity. Wonderful six!
Thanks, Kate. Glad you enjoyed it!
I love how he answers her question with a question. I enjoyed the line: “apparently stupidity was also a symptom of fear induced insanity.” Great six!
Thanks, Lorraine! I had a lot of fun coming up with that line!
Wow. Can’t wait to get my hands on a full copy!
Thanks, Erika! I’m eager for friends to read it, too 😀
Nice six sentences! I just might have to check this out when it comes out in June 🙂
Thanks, Patricia! I hope you do!
